Abstract :
Drexel University has adopted the E4 experiment (An Enhanced Educational Experience for Engineering Students) as its curriculum for all entering engineering students. Drexel have extended the E4 influence by revising the entire undergraduate curriculum using the principles developed and tested in the E4 years. The process hasn´t been completely smooth, nor is it yet finished, but it is under way. This paper reviews the progress
