Customer needs, target specifications, conceptgeneration, preliminary design and detailed design are covered along with communication (oraland written), intellectual property, ethics in engineering and engineering economy. With thispreparation, project-based learning does not progress significantly until the senior year when thecapstone course is offered.In the senior year, students take a two-semester, six-hour capstone design course sequence. Priorto the start of the Fall semester, enough projects are assembled to support student teams of four toeight students, with some larger projects that take up to 25 students each (Formula SAE and Baja,for example
