Abstract

Since practicing engineers work in multidisciplinary teams, it is important that universities provide as many teaming experiences as possible. In this paper, we present some of the advantages and disadvantages of traditional teaming approaches. We then present issues related to virtual teaming-the teaming of students from geographically distributed locations. Virtual teaming adds a new dimension to the teaming experiences that universities can provide to students to better equip them for the environment in which they will work in research positions and in industry. Experiences with a three-year program in virtual teaming between the University of Colorado and George Mason University are presented.
