creates a variety of logistical problems.Monitoring the teams is difficult and problems are easier to hide. Also the initial versions of thecourse were technical electives; they did not satisfy major capstone degree requirement. Everystudent was in the class because they were really interested in the material. Now I have studentswho enroll only to meet their senior design requirement.Despite the problems and frustrations, I enjoy teaching this course and consider it one of themost important experiences our students have. Most seem to agree. The great projects make it allworthwhile, and the good ones are fine too.References 1. Carlson, L.E. and Sullivan, J.F.

In our first year course, we intentionally lay the foundation for thedevelopment of an entrepreneurial mindset within the context of traditional project-based designexperiences. In addition, engineering programs have traditionally incorporated a capstone designproject during the senior year and this

Oneof the elements of participation involves redesigning the capstone senior design curriculum tomake it more innovation and entrepreneurship oriented and as such have a positive impact onstudent satisfaction. This paper details the expectations of students beginning a two-coursesequence in the capstone curriculum. The student survey data led to a rebalancing of the curriculumto one that was solely based on “how-to-do” senior design projects to one that still includes “how-to-do" lecture themes but now includes lecture themes in innovation and entrepreneurship

It wasn't just a game that we were trying to do, the overall outcome of the application was for the kids to learn from it.” “[The program was] a real program to be used by real people, and not being shoved into some archive where it will never see the light of day.” “We had to think differently

Whether this is the current case or not,even conventional curriculum relies heavily on the design process, as most of the sub-disciplinesin engineering require the practicality of design skills in modeling and converting ideas intorealities. Additionally, ABET (specialized accreditation agency for programs for engineeringworldwide) has encouraged the existence of capstone project-based courses to ensure thatgraduates are prepared for real-world, practical applications of engineering principles inindustry8,9,10.    Beyond the importance of science and mathematics fundamentals, global efforts are changingengineering education by emphasizing professional skills and active learning.
