Architectural Engineering. Here at Penn StateUniversity, architectural engineering (AE) encompasses: Mechanical HVAC Design, Lighting/electricalDesign, Structural Design and Construction Engineering and Management.The pinnacle of the program is the yearlong capstone with inherent multidisciplinary aspects to it. Withan industry interface, the capstone is critical to enrich the student experience in complex building designthrough simulating the project to be “more real world” than traditional capstones. This capstonedistinguishes itself by the level of relatively independent work done by the student teams (vs. teaching bythe faculty), heavy industry practitioner interactions, mentoring roles of the faculty and lastly, utilizingreal industry projects

, Competencies, and Trust Measured in Student SurveysAbstractAerospace engineering students at the Florida Institute of Technology are required to complete a3-semester capstone design project. In their junior year students propose topics, form teams, andwrite a proposal for their senior project, then as seniors they complete preliminary and detaileddesign, then fabricate and test their system. Their efforts culminate in a Student DesignShowcase, where industry participants judge the final projects. Many students identify thecapstone design project as the most significant event in their academic career.

accreditationrequirements [7], engineering programs will be working to determine how to incorporateleadership concepts into their curriculum. Experiences that allow students to develop their skillsrelated to self-awareness, teamwork, project management, team development, and mentoring areessential to building leadership abilities and confidence [10]. These types of skills can also belinked to experiences students have through courses, such as capstone design [11].The theoretical framework used in this study to explore participant-reported leadership behaviorsin the context of working with a team is the Competing Values Framework (CVF). The CVFoutlines four different leadership orientations or behaviors: Collaborate, Create, Control, andCompete [12]. Figure 1 shows

This study uses longitudinal methods to examine a single cohort of students at thebeginning and the end of their undergraduate tenure at Florida Institute of Technology. The initialobservation is completed at the beginning of the students’ freshman year, during their Introductionto Mechanical Engineering course. This is a design based course, introducing students to the designprocess and culminating with a group design project. The second observation is made in thestudents’ Mechanical Engineering

To focus more onwriting education, the engineering professors brought in an English professor, who researchesengineering communication and is coordinating this project, to consult on assignments, commenton student work, and present on writing topics, including managing the writing aspect ofcollaborative work.

. Entering the 2015-2016 academic year,program faculty envisioned a capstone design experience that would engage student teams in ayear-long, professional level design project sponsored by an industry client. The first two yearsof the capstone design program have been inarguably successful, and in this paper we identifyand reflect on the keys to our success. The intention for writing this paper is to ensure thesuccess of the program is repeatable, and to assist other programs, especially those residing insmall liberal arts universities, in starting or revising their own senior design experience.Our key factors in assembling a successful industry-sponsored capstone design program havebeen: (1) faculty buy-in and involvement, (2) engaged industry

The benefit oflonger research experiences complements the structure of VIP, as returning students take on increasinglevels of responsibility and serve as student leaders. To facilitate longer-term student participation, VIPcourses are offered in 1-credit and 2-credit increments, with two semesters of

In atypical engineering course, 30−40% of the education is carried out as lectures, 30−40% aslessons and 20−40% as laboratory experiments. In addition, case studies and project works areused in about half of the courses. Some projects are small (down to 15% of the course workload)and some may make up the whole course.In the present study, two courses are of interest. One is a course in Engineering thermodynamicswhich both the ME, DPD and IEM students take; the ME students as the very first course of theprogram, and the PDP and IEM students at the middle of the second year. The other is a bachelor(capstone) project course that the IEM students take as

The project should be “fun” even when requiring hard work; • Select a project that would be palatable to overall faculty within the college of engineering; • Maintain a budget affordable for students; • Utilize existing resources available (i.e., Makerspace); and • Develop curriculum that scaffolds the students through the design process, and also includes elements of project management, teaming and other “soft skills”.With these goals in the forefront, the instructor team began to consider project ideas

Interestingly, although enhanced fabrication skills was a key learningobjective, no students indicated that this was a primary reason to enroll in the course, nor didthey view fabrication skills as directly benefitting them in either college coursework or in theengineering profession. Although they believed the construction experience might help with asenior capstone project, they saw fabrication as disparate from engineering practice, which theyviewed as heavily focused on theory and application. Rather, they believed the soft skillsembedded in the project – such as time management, scheduling, and communication – were thekey takeaways for

ConclusionsThe senior capstone design experience provided students the opportunity to apply what theyhave learned in their undergraduate courses in previous years into a viable project. It bridges thegap between classroom and industry and allows students to apply their knowledge and skills totackle real world challenges. It gives them the responsibility and freedom to perform at their ownpace and learn to interact and communicate with their team mates.

. Furthermore, even students who do relatively well in these classes tend tolose their technical capabilities to tackle fairly large and complicated problems fromconcept to solution and then implementation using sound computer programmingpractices due to lack of sufficient practice in their upper division courses. This has beenobserved in the CS capstone course that requires students to design relatively largeprograms for various course projects. As a result, this could hinder their progress towardgraduation as well as future success as software developers, computer programmers,and/or other information technology and computing professionals.
