Abstract
This paper discusses issues resulting from the author's experience in teaching human factors and ergonomics design project courses, including a recent project examining features of project management software applied to academic environments. The experiences of the design project team, as well as other issues in managing the author's research lab, indicate significant issues associated with attempting to apply industry-based project management tools, processes, and expectations to a university-based teaching and learning environment. Rather than demonstrate an empirical solution to the title question, this paper presents a series of queries to examine in the context of limits and opportunities in higher education to enhance students' preparation for entering a information economy workforce.
