Software engineering inthe automotive industry provides a strong platform for student exploration.One key hurdle for integration of automobiles into a software engineering curriculum is that ofaccess. Vehicles based on classic internal combustion (IC) engine power sources require speciallaboratory space, have harmful emissions to deal with and are hard to keep clean.

The projects bringreal world considerations into the mix, such as design constraints, scheduling, logistics, financing andvarious other project management concerns.The design curriculum culminates in a two-semester capstone design project that encompasses the fullscope of engineering design and standard program outcomes [2]. The capstone design projects areintended to be a design/build/test project for an external audience. Students are assessed for the technicalwork and independent learning necessary in the design phase, the ability to assemble the overallprototype, and the quality of testing

Therefore, the integration of impromptu designexercises into all aspects of the curriculum is motivated by the above research findings.In addition, the authors have found that these projects have a number of other advantagesincluding: • Using these hands-on activities give students concrete examples of the issues being discussed in class – e.g. students go through an impromptu design exercise (where they design and

These basic concepts areconducive to simple, conceptually oriented laboratory assignments and are an ideal place to havestudents design an experiment.This paper is a continuation of a paper3 presented at the 2011 ASEE conference in the ASEEDELOS division
