The Department of Chemical Engineering at NC State University proposes a cross-disciplinary, multi-functional, lab-integrated series of courses in bioprocessing as the crown in a chemical engineering option focused on biotechnology. The proposed curricular innovation integrates several elements of cooperative learning, teaming, communication, and basic technology skills known to be desirable in the workforce, i.e. GMP, GLP, and process validation. Novel features of the proposed curriculum include: active involvement and participation of faculty and students from 9 departments and 3 Colleges; in-depth integration of experiments, computer simulation, and cooperative learning lectures; active participation by representatives of local pharmaceutical and bioprocessing companies in structuring, designing, and teaching the courses; integration of essential employment-related information into the curriculum; and focus on communications and teaming. The proposed curricular paradigm is a shift away from conventional department-based, lecture-style courses. The proposed 3-course sequence, if successful as gauged by proposed assessment tools, can be applied to the microelectronics, nanotechnology, and polymers portions of our curriculum. The protocols developed for implementation and assessment can be used by any engineering program to integrate cooperative learning, multidisciplinary teaming, and communication into their curriculum.

北卡罗来纳州立大学化学工程系提出了一个跨学科，多功能，实验室集成的生物加工系列课程，作为专注于生物技术的化学工程选项的皇冠。 拟议的课程创新整合了合作学习，团队合作，沟通和基本技术技能的几个要素，已知是可取的劳动力，即GMP，GLP和工艺验证。 该课程的新特点包括：来自9个系和3个学院的教师和学生的积极参与和参与;实验、计算机模拟和合作学习讲座的深入整合;当地制药和生物加工公司的代表积极参与课程的构建、设计和教学;与就业相关的基本信息融入课程;专注于沟通和团队合作拟议的课程模式是从传统的部门为基础的，讲座式的课程转变。建议的3门课程的顺序，如果成功的评估工具，可以应用到我们的课程的微电子，纳米技术和聚合物部分。为实施和评估而开发的协议可用于任何工程项目，以将合作学习，多学科团队合作和沟通融入其课程。
