her research interests include signal processing, biomedical and materials engineer- ing, design, STEM education and assistive technologies.. She has served in the Mid-Atlantic section of ASEE for a number of years and is active in ASME and IEEE activities. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Design of a Junior Level Design Class: Work-in-ProgressAbstractIn order to strengthen engineering students’ preparation to tackle open-ended, multidisciplinaryprojects in their senior-level capstone course, a new junior-level design course was developedand implemented at Loyola University Maryland. Engineering faculty, students, and members ofour industrial advisory board identified

, which we utilize to gather data for this study. The setting for thisstudy is an ABET accredited Mechanical Engineering program [16] at a public land and seagrant university in the Mid-Atlantic US with a mid-sized course enrollment (ca. 140 students peryear).Course and Design Project Descriptions“Machine Design” is typically a one or two semester course sequence, usually occurring in thejunior year, that builds upon the fundamentals taught in Statics, Dynamics, and Solid Mechanicswhile also serving as preparation for Senior/Capstone Engineering Design experiences[17,18,19]. Thus, these courses provide a key stepping stone from a more structured learningenvironment to a more open-ended workplace-like environment that serves as a culmination

multidisciplinarity of a team drives communication andargumentation decisions. This study investigated how team multidisciplinary (denoted“disciplinary diversity” of the design team) affects the communication strategies employed bysenior-level engineering design students at a large, public university.MethodsContext and Data Collection. This study was conducted on transcripts of student presentationsgiven for the Fall 2019 Senior Design Showcase at a large R1 university in the Mid-Atlantic UnitedStates. The Senior Design Showcase projects were scoped to solve real-world engineeringproblems experienced by industry sponsors. One of the core components of the Senior Designcurriculum is that teams are multidisciplinary (i.e., the teams include students from
