engineering curricula is important for the education of well-qualified engineers. While all accredited engineering programs are required to provide a majorcapstone design experience, the integration of design throughout the curriculum is oftenchallenging. The departments of biomedical engineering and industrial engineering at WesternNew England College have developed a design experience completed as a requirement in seniorengineering laboratory courses. The design project experience is in addition to the capstonedesign courses. This experience was used to demonstrate students’ ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams, design a system within realistic constraints, and understand the impact ofdesign solutions in a societal context.IntroductionA

inserts are an integral part of machining operations. In the continual search for costeffectiveness in manufacturing we turn our focus to an attempt to reduce tooling cost byimproving the life of cutting inserts. There has been continued research conducted to increasecutter tool life with various applications of cutting fluids, speed and feed rates, and the use ofcoated cutters. One newer approach, cryogenic processing, has been promoted as an effectivemethod of extending the useful life of different cutting tools used in the manufacturing process.This research area provides an excellent opportunity to apply real life research into capstonedesign projects. The purpose of the project was to investigate the feasibility of the claim inconjunction

One common theme in most of these projects is that the courses are designed forsenior students enrolled mainly in engineering and other disciplines 6 - 9). While theseprojects are multidisciplinary, synchronization of course syllabi across the disciplineswas not made.In the above context, the Interdisciplinary Design Studies (IDS) project undertaken atRobert Morris University (RMU) in the spring of 2006 was a unique experiment by virtueof two features: Firstly, because the course was offered for mainly junior (along withsome sophomore) students and not for senior or graduate students as is usually

This shortamount of time is insufficient for students on a team to thoroughly perform many of the aspectsof engineering design being emphasized in our curriculum, such as the examination of alternatesolutions, performing an analysis to decide upon the best solution, and providing documentationof the specifications of their chosen design.

The angular flux ψ(r, Ω) ˆ can be presented as the magnitude of the angular current, and in thisregard it can be interpreted as rate of flow across a surface that is perpendicular to Ω. ˆ But thereis no value in emphasizing this. It confuses flux with flow across a surface, a connection thathas little utility. The scalar flux φ = 4π ψ d 2 Ω is introduced as a definition, as is the net currentJ, and the point that neither can be generally computed from the other is made. In other words,once direction information is integrated away, the connection between current-like and flux-likequantities is broken. The

The advisor nowbecomes a research manager and mentor as well.In many cases, this trend has led to the integration of undergraduate research directly into theacademic curriculum.
