Abstract
We describe an experimental, project-based, integrated art and engineering course for undergraduate students currently taking place at Georgia Institute of Technology. The course is informed by our research study on the creative work practices of artists and engineers. A summary of this research and a description of the course are presented here. This work can inform K-16 STEM education, particularly with respect to giving students skills to participate in the creative innovation economy.
