nanotechnology has nowbrought urgent challenges to undergraduate engineering education: How to integrate theemerging nanotechnologies into classroom teaching? How to prepare our students fortomorrow’s highly competitive global job markets? And how to maintain the US’s leadershipand dominance in science and technology in an era of globalization?Funded by Department of Education, a project is carried out to integrate nanotechnology into theundergraduate science and engineering curricula through a sequential preparation approach fromintroductory freshman to the advanced senior level. The curricula are reinforced by innovativecomputer simulations and state-of-the-art nanomaterials laboratory experiments anddemonstrations. The work presented in this paper is

the author aims toprovide a better background of the geometrical base of computer graphical tools and toaddress Computer Graphics in the Architectural Engineering Curriculum not merely as arepresentational and visualization tool but also as a means of extending spatialunderstanding and as a method of informing the design process. At the same time theintegration of geometric concepts is expected to allow students to keep up with emergingtrends in digital technologies and broaden geometrical thought that is independent of themethods of each time. In the following sections the way that geometry has been integratedin two courses on Computer Graphics is presented.Introduction to Computer GraphicsThe “Introduction to Computer Graphics” course is
