researchdirections.2. The holistic engineering approachGrasso and Martinelli argued that pursuing the concept of the “unity of knowledge” will yield anew definition of engineering which is more fitting for the times ahead [2], [4], [5]. The unity ofknowledge is the integration of knowledge across disciplines to deal with complex problems.Many engineering curricula include general education requirements in the form of coursesoutside of the discipline. However, institutions rarely take the next step and offer connectionsamong these courses to integrate or “unify” students' learning.The engineering education community has embraced the idea of incorporating multi-disciplinaryand cross-disciplinary elements into the curriculum [6]. At the same time, in its Body

Study abroad, however, is not practical for engineering or computer science students.even though they show similar interests as their peers in business, social sciences, and other liberalarts [2]. Curriculum complexity is the primary adversary. Consider an aerospace engineeringstudent in the undergraduate program. A course sequence of courses Calculus I, Calculus II,Calculus III, Differential Equations, Modeling Methods, Vibrations, Aerospace Design I, andAerospace Design II is reasonable. Missing one of the courses, however, delays the remainingcourses by a semester or two depending on course availability/frequency. Study abroad programsthat are a full semester in duration may not

The concept of “hands-onlearning” is not new in engineering education. A previous study of engineering educationshowed that hands-on learning is an effective method for engineering classes.1 In fact, over thepast 10 years or so, many engineering schools and programs have started to adopt “hands-onlearning” into their curricula. Whether using simple everyday household items or sophisticatedequipment, professors are now trying to integrate hands-on learning into their classes.Laboratory activities are the traditional method of providing students hands-on experience.However, with advancements in
