One is to further define and reinforce learning outcomesand content but also to allow diversity in instructor methodologies and approach so instructorscan teach to their strengths and incorporate approaches that best engage the students. The otheris a pilot program that would provide ARCE faculty assistance to ARCH studios and perhapsCM laboratories and a consequent re-structuring of the Small Scale Structure and Large ScaleStructures courses.Bibliography1 Dolan, C and Plumb, O “Interdisciplinary Capstone Design Program – A Case Study” Paper 2008-463, 2008ASEE Annual Conference and Exposition Proceedings.2 Folz, D and Mellodge, P

This is also where the “learn by doing” comes to fruition similar to the old medicalexpression of: “see one, do one, teach one”.One condition on enrollment of the design laboratory courses is that the student cannot take twoof the above three courses from the same instructor. By limiting the number of students tosixteen and exposing the students to different instructors, who themselves have differentbackgrounds in the structural engineering consulting profession, the students get accustomed toworking close to their supervisors on a one to one basis. Before graduating, the students areexposed to working for different

One of the most significant of these challenges is the need to work within theframework of integrated project delivery where all disciplines work as a cohesive team toproduce a project. In 2004, the Construction Management Department at California PolytechnicState University in San Luis Obispo,CA began teaching a three credit hour design/build coursefocused on integrated project delivery. That course, taught primarily to construction managementstudents, has now evolved into a true interdisciplinary experience that
