Goldberg et al. (2014) described howindustry involvement in a multidisciplinary design course benefited both students as well asindustry participants. In addition, such involvement by the industry professionals makes thecurriculum current and relevant to the discipline [2]. Weissbach, et al.

Graduates who do not understand “The Big Picture” will be challenged to providesafe, practical design in a complex future. 4.
