Management of Manufacturing andService Processes.The graduation project is supervised by a faculty member of the IE Department, and may befocused on either solving an engineering problem or contributing to a research project. Veryfrequently, engineering problems correspond to real life needs of Colombian companies. Thecompany involved supports the project by assigning an engineer who acts as a co-supervisor ofthe project. Graduation projects are developed through the courses 05174 – Graduation Project Iand 05175 – Graduation Project II, which are capstone projects focused on the development ofprofessional skills such as project management, problem solving, and communication. The co-opexperience is a professional internship that must last no less

understanding, it is possible todetermine if an additional longitudinal study could be used to determine if this teaching approachbrings skills to students to help them perform in their capstone projects more effectively.Specifically, the goal is to determine if this teaching method increases student conceptualunderstanding of the material and interdependencies between different aspects of the courseThe ideation for this research falls at the intersection of traditional education concepts, specificresearch on the education of business end of systems management, and future goals forengineering education.Beginning with traditional education processes, in 1973, curriculum theoretician, JosephSchwab, wrote The Practical: A Language for Curriculum, where he

courses was estimated as previously described. If a student tooka course more than once, then only the most recent grade was used.For students who had not graduated by the time of publication, an estimated graduation time wascomputed. This estimate was based on their individual course curriculum plan. For example, ifa student had satisfactorily completed the first senior design capstone course in fall 2015, then itwas assumed that the student would graduate in spring 2016 (upon completion of their secondand final semester in senior design).Included with the transcript data was information collected by the instructor during the course.The course structure and topics did not change during the study period (2013-2015).
