These authorsexplain that capstone design courses are commonly used to demonstrate the achievement ofprescribed engineering competencies. The development of cornerstone (or introductory) designcourses was prompted by desires to connect new students to the engineering profession in anengaging and meaningful fashion. The value of introducing design thinking and applying project-based learning is emphasized as means to acquire design skills. The Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate (CDIO) process is suggested as a means to infuse design throughout thecurriculum.Design thinking is characterized as the designer’s ability to tolerate ambiguity, addressuncertainty, iterate, maintain a systems perspective, work in a team, make decisions, andcommunicate
