Smaller class sizeshowever must be balanced against heavy teaching loads for faculty. Developing projectmentorship that enhances both the BYOP students and more advanced students experience maybe one approach. Another approach may be to partner with 4-year colleges and universities.

The second aim is to leverage interdisciplinary collaboration to enhancemedtech device design by 1) using CIP as a catalyst to identify and validate needs for use as SDprojects and 2) continuing longitudinal development beyond SD with medical student innovatorsfrom our four-year cocurricular Innovation Medicine (IMED) program for medical students.Transitioning projects from CIP to SD, by students with training in prototyping, and then tomedical capstone has substantial

While acknowledging that engineering schools already produce technicallycompetent graduates, they need engineers who are: creative, can work in teams, and cancommunicate and share their thoughts and ideas. They emphasized that engineering schoolsshould involve students in projects from day one and not rely on capstone design to practiceproblem-solving and learn about partnerships, relationships, and exchanging ideas. To help meetthis challenge, Jarrar and Anis suggested that integrating entrepreneurial

Introduction to Engineering and the other one isSenior Capstone Design. Introduction to Engineering usually provides engineering students with a betterunderstanding of engineering disciplines through hands on experience and can engage students. SeniorCapstone Design courses offer rich opportunities for engineering students to work in teams or individuallyon industrial and real-world projects [2][3]. However, Introduction to Engineering is usually offered at thebeginning of freshman year, and Senior Capstone Design is usually offered during a student’s senior year.As a result, there are commonly limited design opportunities for engineering students in between.Second, many universities are emphasizing experiential learning and encourage engineering

Theinclusion of CDC within the specialization has a similar aim, with the intention of givingstudents the opportunity to integrate and apply prerequisite knowledge, strengthen their designskills, and develop professional competencies required for project work. In this way, the subjectcan be viewed as a ‘mini-capstone’ for the specialization, although there is a separate year-longcapstone requirement all students in the degree must complete.

/Capstone design projects. In the former category, projects are usually highly structuredand uniform in scope across the class, and roles on the team and subgoals are typically specifiedto the students [1]. In contrast, Senior/Capstone projects range in scope and complexity fromteam to team depending on the sponsor, team size and composition can vary, and subgoals mustbe generated and managed by the students themselves [2,3]. Increasing complexity andambiguity are essential for simulating a more “real-world” design experience; however, they cancreate conditions for behaviors and situations that are detrimental to the growth of individualteam members [4,5].Certain types of conflict and bad team behavior can develop as the structure of the team

Substantial interaction between mechanical engineering andentrepreneurship students in a senior level capstone course resulted in noteworthy improvementsin final project quality [3].When entrepreneurship is present, as it is in this study, a recent literature review identified a needfor more studies that measure its educational impacts [4]. This is not a new conclusion.Immersion in a process, such as the one conducted in this study, or even a simulation allowschildren to learn extensive amounts of information in short periods of time [5]. However, fewpedagogical impact investigations interrogate more than direct, overall academic achievement,even with one of the most studied constructs, achievement motivation [6

the instructors were pleased with how the course went and the students’ demonstratedlearning and responses. The seniors were all in their capstone design course at the same time asthis class so they had more experience with longer-term open-ended projects and presentationsthan the juniors. Initially some of the juniors were more tentative in their groups and theirpresentations but it was great to see improvement and by the end of the semester, all students tookownership of the projects. Note that all juniors were on teams with some seniors. One teamincluded only seniors.
