A challenge facing many institutions is how to bring “real” design experiences into the curriculum. Introducing “real” design experiences, where the purpose is to expose students to open ended problems and multiple solution paths and to encourage creativity, into the classroom, brings many concerns for the faculty. These include guiding the students through the design process over multiple semesters with multidisciplinary and vertically integrated teams that change from semester to semester. Additional challenges are introduced when the projects are driven by an external customer with their own needs and timetables.
