Based on ample experience, both first and second hand, that's going to fail. It is really hard to instill proper methodology, domain modelling, and statistics in students, and since the premise already is that it "would not disrupt other curricula" (PM speak for: little time and attention), students are going to walk away with the wrong ideas and think that they now understand experimental science.
