The following work in progress summarizes the efforts of the Integrated Product and Process Design (IPPD) Program in the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering at the University of Florida (UF). Since 1995, IPPD provides an outstanding opportunity for engineering students to work in multidisciplinary teams to solve real-world challenges of interest to sponsor companies with the guidance of a faculty member and staff. UF expects IPPD to increase 30% in the number of students and projects for the upcoming year. Growing IPPD’s enrollment will bring many challenges for capstone design instruction, development of assessment tools, faculty performance evaluations, and multidisciplinary team management. The current work will share the findings of 9 years of collected data and examples of instructional design strategies such as lesson plans, online environment, active learning, and assessment tools. Finally, this will lead to a discussion about the new strategies and efforts needed to improve course delivery, management, and assessment.
