fundamental framework for the students to understand, appreciate, and relate the informationobtained in the following years of study. The course should also promote and develop the firstlevels of capability.This is consistent with a tenant in educational psychology, which states that knowledge isconstructed and incremental. Therefore, students must be educated with the expectation theenvironment will change and new methods and technologies available. This approach is directlytransferrable to the engineering profession. Design is what engineers do on a daily basis and“engages both the intellect and the imagination of the designer”.3 Engineers must not only becompetent in their technical knowledge but must more importantly be capable to apply
