.Multidisciplinary teams are also essential components of knowledge management practices inorganizations. The combination of MD teams and optimizing emerging technologies enablesorganizations to manage the human side of learning and complex decision-making2. Because the needs ofindustry often influence the professional preparation of new entrants into the workforce, it is critical toattend to those educational issues involved with multidisciplinary teams. The current study providesinsight into the under explored area of multidisciplinary teaming instruction and assessment within asenior capstone design course. Numerous curricular changes in engineering disciplines nationwide have focused instruction oncommunication and teamwork skills3. While some
paper discusses an approach being taken at Marquette University tohelp close competency gaps and incorporate a higher level of horizontal integration betweenmanufacturing courses using the Learning Factory approach. Rather than limiting usage of themanufacturing lab to one course, it instead forms an integrated environment for hands-onlearning across the manufacturing curriculum using a variety of manufacturing technologies. Asone means of assessing this approach, the impact of the methodology is being measured using aquantitative index (ν-function) which was developed at Marquette University for measuring thequality of soft indices.IntroductionOver the last decade, engineering education has undergone a number of significant reforms.

However, if we examinethe segment of the college population that are pursuing careers in computer science, engineering,and other technical fields, we find that women are but a small minority here, and that someinstitutions experience selectively high migration of these talented women into other lesstechnical and less high paying professions.Clearly although much progress has been made in decreasing the gender gap in technical fields,women are still vastly underrepresented in engineering, science, information technology, andrelated fields.

IntroductionEngineering programs in the U.S. are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commissionof the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET)1. In the past,programs were evaluated using a set of criteria that prescribed most of the courses and activitiesthat a program had to offer to be accredited. If a department followed ABET’srecommendations, their programs were generally accredited. Beginning in 2001, all programsare being evaluated based on the outcomes of the programs and the skills of their graduates.Universities

This approachwill provide the greatest insight into the design problem within the time assigned.The process of rectifying thus reducing the theoretical trade-space available consists of: (a)Formulate a classification scheme for the design options available. (b) Focus the DB/KBdevelopment and team learning on relevant design trade-studies. (c) Harmonize pre-selected tradeswith
