samescenario tested in this experiment. Figure 20 shows the results of the FEA simulation run for theFSAE spaceframe. The simulation was run with 400 ft-lbf, an average suspension load, appliedacross the front axle. The torsional stiffness at the front axle from FEA was calculated to bearound 1100 ft-lbf/deg. This is within 10% of the value calculated from the experimental setup.

, whilesuperficially similar in topics covered to Electronic Instrumentation, is a very different course.First, because there are no formal college level prerequisites (only a typical high school scienceand math experience is assumed), circuit analysis emphasizes algebraic methods and preparationfor future circuits and electronics courses. An even more important distinction is the emphasis ona more complete and integrated Experimental Centric Pedagogy (ECP) than has been the case inElectronic Instrumentation (EI). Essentially every concept is first introduced through anexperiment (experiment first) which requires that a substantial fraction of time spent in and outof class is dedicated to enhancing the students skills as electronics experimenters.

Through thismethodology, a student team is typically required to conduct research and learn essential skillsbefore ever building or testing an experiment.

System Integration: Electronic ControlsOne key aspect of additive manufacturing is to match the dispensing of the material with themovement of the stages. This required that the activation of the cake icing dispenser beautomated to allow for proper filling of the cavity. To accomplish this, the circuit shown in Fig. 6was designed and implemented. First, a multiplexer and transistor (TIP120 NPN in Fig. 6) wasused to extract an additional output from the LegoTM NXT controller to allow for the X, Y, and Zaxes as well as the cake icing dispenser to be synchronized. The circuit utilized the pulse widthmodulation PWM) of the LegoTM NXT controller to turn on an external voltage source thatpowered the cake icing dispenser. (Thetoggle switch (DPDT Switch

will help guide thisoverview. Firstly, aerospace engineers are often engaged in the design of large scale complexengineered systems, and design involves an individual’s technical competency integrated into ateam of specialists and generalists. For example, a team of propulsion engineers in an enginecompany may coordinate and communicate with a team of propulsion integration engineers in anairframe company, and those integration engineers are simultaneously coordinating with aircraftperformance engineers and the flight test team. Secondly, because of complexity of the systemsand specialty of the engineer, an engineer’s experience is unique.

What, exactly, had these students’ experiences with engineers been? By developing somebaseline for what an engineer is, and what students’ interactions with engineers and engineeringhas been, we can extrapolate some ideas for implementing engineering literacy into a curriculum. Common understandings of engineers and engineering often begin with stereotypes.5,6Students, when asked about their experiences with engineers and engineering, brought severalstereotypes as their basis for examining those experiences.

In an effort to improvemultidisciplinary design, faculty from 3 engineering departments at UCSB met over the courseof an academic quarter to discuss a more integrated multidisciplinary capstone design programfor seniors. One complicating factor was departmental pressure to maintain the discipline-specific integrity of the engineering experience throughout the student body. Anothercomplicating factor included the disparity between course units and timelines created by eachdiscipline. In response to these challenges, we have created a supplementary multidisciplinarycapstone course (SMCC) to be coupled to the existing
