美國加州州立工藝大學波莫那分校（California State Polytechnic University, Pomona）建築系採行「將專業技術課程整合於建築設計專題工作坊中」的｢整合式」教學模式。該校自2006年9月起由一位建築系教授帶領數位學生到朝陽科技大學建築系進行為期三個月之中長期交流學習，並實施建築設計與相關專業技術理論整合之教學模式。歷經兩年餘之國際學術交流活動，經由質性參訪與問卷調查：本校建築系師生均深刻體認到整合建築理論與技術於設計專題工作坊中的教學模式，為於單一系所中得以紥實訓練多種職別專業的可行方式；就技職校院而言，學生經由數種教學機制的變革與「做中學」過程，實際體驗與建築相關技術與專業知識，更能深刻內化為個人專業學養。

The Department of Architecture of California State Polytechnic University, Pomona is one of the innovative teaching patterns regarding ”The integration of professional courses into various topic studios”. In compliance with academic exchange agreement, one Professor and some students from Cal-Poly Pomona come to Department of Architecture of CYUT since September 2006 for the duration of one quarter. This provides a great opportunity for mutual learning and for the execution of theory and practice integrated teaching method in architectural Design. After three months' activities of international academic exchange, all of Architecture Departments in CYUT profoundly realized that the teaching patterns of integrating architectural theory and practice into various topic studios are feasible ways of effective students' training for various future jobs in a single disciplinary department. By way of 'learning by doing', students experience first-hand architectural technical and professional knowledge, and are thus able to internalize these experiences into their individual professional expertise.
