Many American manufacturing organizations are adopting "agile" product development practices in an effort to retain their predominant position in today's fast changing global environment. The growing product complexity and resultant diverse skill requirements underscore the need for organizations to work together as a "Virtual Enterprise". A Virtual Enterprise (VE) is a temporary consortium of companies formed quickly to explore fast-changing opportunities.In this context, there is a need for graduating engineering students that are proficient in the methods, concepts, and software used in the VE subject areas. This project is developing a Virtual Enterprise Engineering (VEE) laboratory to facilitate the learning process for students. This development adapts and merges the related laboratory experiences at Texas A&M, the University of Houston, and the University of Illinois at Chicago and supports on-going curriculum development at Utah State University.

许多美国制造组织正在采用“敏捷”的产品开发实践，以努力在当今快速变化的全球环境中保持其主导地位。日益增长的产品复杂性和随之而来的多样化技能要求突出了各组织作为“虚拟企业”共同工作的必要性。虚拟企业(VE)是为探索快速变化的机会而迅速形成的临时公司联盟。在这种背景下，需要精通虚拟企业主题领域所使用的方法、概念和软件的工程专业毕业生。该项目正在开发一个虚拟企业工程(VEE)实验室，以促进学生的学习过程。这一发展适应并融合了德克萨斯农工大学、休斯顿大学和伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校的相关实验室经验，并支持犹他州州立大学正在进行的课程开发。
