In addition, teaching-oriented colleges oftenlack research laboratories, have a very limited number of graduate students, and offer little or nostartup funds to new faculty. Because of economic constraints, both administrators and facultyare being asked to do more with less support [6].

This provides us with an on-campus location where we can host groups ofscouts, individuals and schools interested in STEM fields. This course was instrumental instarting a K-12 STEM outreach “library” of hands-on activities, which can be used on- or off-site.Practicing engineers from the area are also excited with our K-12 STEM library.

Students would take three IE courses – Probability andStatistics (ENGR 0020), Productivity Analysis (IE 1054), and Human Factors (IE 1061). Ifcertain topics were introduced in such a way that students simultaneously see their application indifferent areas, there would be better reinforcement as well as a much better appreciation forthese principles. For instance, when the normal distribution is introduced in ENGR 0020, onemight also do a work sampling study in IE 1054, and a signal detection theory laboratory in IE1061 that require the use of normal tables.

We present our experiences in implementing this approach in one section(32 students) of a freshman introduction to engineering design course. A preliminaryassessment is also presented.1. IntroductionThe use of team projects as a way to teach engineering design is pervasive across allengineering disciplines and throughout the curriculum. The success of any design team --both in learning design concepts and performing well -- requires that students have agood grasp of technical and management aspects of the design process. Accordingly,poor management or lack of communication

All civil engineeringprograms are required to provide a broad education, which includes several design subdisciplinecourses with attendant laboratory experience. Consequently, the credits available for projectmanagement courses are severely limited. While a construction management curriculum mayinclude two project management courses and possibly a separate scheduling course, there areinsufficient credits available in a civil engineering curriculum to provide such coverage.Consequently, CE Management is
