The department of Bioengineering is jointly within both theCollege of Engineering and the College of Medicine, which facilitates student exposure to a widevariety of clinical environments with medical faculty engagement. The course is sponsored byan industry partner, who, in conjunction with faculty, provides project statements that are ofstrategic business interest. For this reason, all students participate under a Non-DisclosureAgreement. The first semester focuses on early front-end

Design ProjectsPrototyping is often a very important phase in a capstone design project. However, in manycases, prototyping decisions are made arbitrarily by students, adversely affecting the quality ofthe final product delivered. At The University of Texas at Austin we are developing a structuredprototyping strategy tool based on a synthesis of prototyping techniques that have been shown tobe effective. Our strategy tool leads designers through the process of making decisions aboutaspects of a prototype program, such as how many concepts to prototype, the number ofprototype iterations to complete for a given concept, and whether to use scaled prototypes. In thisstudy we evaluate whether explicit discussion of these prototyping decisions affects

The challenge for many engineering curricula is how to include, in arealistic way, this global dimension and increase the student’s awareness of the issues that areencountered. In the Purdue University Engineering Technology program, an international capstone project was createdto increase student awareness of the cultural differences that they will encounter in global projects.

Surveys showed that thiswas due to the fact that the laboratory experiments were topic specific and did not present asystem design approach which made it difficult for students who attempted to use thismicrocontroller [1]. A new platform, the C-Stamp microcontroller, was introduced as analternative for their design. This development boards provide a pre-assembled hardware platform,which include common peripheries in addition to programming libraries. These benefitsencouraged some students to implement the C-Stamp microcontroller in their senior designprojects with fairly successful outcomes [1]. The

This course is offeredevery semester and requires the student to synthesize and apply subject matter studies in previousrequired courses and apply them to a realistic problem solving effort. In the Fall 2013, the ENTC4600 course’s learning outcomes were modified to infuse global perspectives of engineeringproblems and solutions. In that semester, students explored international markets mainlydeveloping countries, identified an engineering and technology related problem with thecollaboration of a focus group (consists of international students), and then designed anddeveloped a solution to

By integrating all ofthese functions into one device, it is now possible for hospital staff to know, simply by viewingthe room’s access panel, who is in that room. It allows for safe, hands-free access. And mostimportantly it integrates seamlessly with the hospital protocol and allows the hospital staff tofunction more efficiently with respect to patient monitoring and response.

whether a student is proposing an acceptable senior project.The scope of this effort includes the creation of an assessment tool that measures critical aspectsof a good senior project. This includes quantifying the following ‘engineering merit’ aspects:problem statement, function statement, requirements, analyses, performance predictions, andevaluation. These ‘aspects’ exist in all of the capstone projects, regardless of the subject matteror discipline.Students refer to their proposals when using the metric. Professors review and advise in a timelymanner. Students can better determine if they have proposed an ‘acceptable’ senior projectbefore the professor agrees to final acceptance.The students and professors have applied the rubric to projects

According to Paretti, etal.2, capstone projects afford engineering students an opportunity to integrate the disparatecomponents of technical knowledge gained in an academic environment where courses arepresented as standalone bodies of knowledge. As a culminating experience, senior capstone is asingular significant experience where students: apply and reinforce the knowledge, skills andabilities (KSAs) learned from course work; enhance communication KSAs; developinterpersonal KSAs

They allow studentsto engage in more authentic engineering designs, helping to develop the technical andprofessional skills.
