The proliferation of digital media, remote learning modalities, and artificial intelligence is disrupting engineering education. This has implications for those teaching in the traditional engineering disciplines such as mechanical, materials and manufacturing engineering, which have a significant portion of their character related to non-computational domains. This chapter develops a four-pronged approach that embraces technology while doubling down on those elements which digitization struggles to deliver effectively, while arguing for additive manufacturing being at the center: (i) designing a nexus curriculum that allows for blending concepts; (ii) flipping the classroom; (iii) enabling a hands-on learning environment, and (iv) creating more opportunities for discussion. Findings from implementation of this approach in undergraduate and graduate classes are presented and discussed.
