Abstract: Abstract Philadelphia University has an enrollment of 2,600 undergraduate students and 750 graduate students. The University consists of 39 academic programs recently organized into three colleges with an overall matrix structure: the College of Science Health and the Liberal Arts, the College of Architecture and the Built Environment, and the subject of this section, the Kanbar College of Design Engineering and Commerce (hereafter the College). The University encourages and supports pedagogies that it refers to as Nexus Learning, “active, engaged, real world, and infused with the liberal arts” (Philadelphia University, 2010).
