Abstract :
This paper proposes and gives evidence supporting a team based approach to the design and implementation of engineering curricula. It shows how such an approach allows the effective integration of many different learning outcomes to give a coherent student experience. Finally, it uses examples to illustrate where the web and other technology can be invaluable tools for the delivery of a holistic curriculcum.
