Horizontal Integration:Provide “Just-in-Time” hands-on laboratory experience

Increase the total number of technical electivesfrom two to four:• Diversification• Establish in-depth understanding of selectivesubjects

Extend the design course from one semester toa two-semester format:• Emphasis on “In-Practice” learning byanalyzing through the entire design cycle• Team-based projects in cooperation withindustrial partners whenever possible

Provide an overview of the engineering practice:• Basic design process (ProEngineering)• Communication skills (PowerPoint presentation)• Introduce fundamental mechanics conceptsthrough case studies -- provide a connectionbetween the mathematical formulations andphysical concepts

Introduction of computer and machine tool skills:• Programming language (C, MathCAD, Matlab)• Machine shop hands-on experience• Introduce fundamental thermal concepts throughcase studies (use model Sterling Engine: energyconcept, efficiency, etc.)

Should include the completeintegration of mathematics, physicsand engineering process together.Schools such as those in the NSFFoundation Coalition haveestablished such an experimentalintegration program.

Due to logistic constraints andother factors, we decided not totry such a whole-salerenovation at this stage.

Integrated Thermal/Fluid Course Description

Integrate traditional subjects of Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics into one coherent two-semester course sequence

Place emphasis on the connection between different interdisciplinary subjects

Conduct three one-hour lectures plus one three-hour lab/workshop session

Use real-world case studies throughout the class
