The space is meant to blur the lines between disciplines and to tear down the walls—literally and metaphorically— between instruction and research, so that the research being conducted in one lab provides the content for the curriculum being taught next door.

We want to elevate the level of discovery—be it in research or teaching. Problem-based learning is as an effective route to that goal and the ISE-Lab will provide the perfect environment for implementing an integrated science curriculum using PBL. The problems that need to be solved don’t fall into neat disciplinary areas, nor do students think that way. PBL is about the real world.
