This means answering questions such as:  Which type of motor is the most appropriate for the given application?  At what speed(s) should be motor be operating?  What torque is required for the application?  What environmental issues need to be considered in selecting the motor?An initial foray into motor selection was briefly discussed as part of a larger discussion involvingworking with industrial partners [10].

Search:Born out of the shortage of qualified engineers in the U.S. (and around the world), research onengineering education has increased over the past decade and were highlighted in key NationalReports1-2. And while prior studies have focused on why students go into engineering initially3,there has been recognition that selecting an engineering major has not always been based onsignificant understanding of the profession4. It was recognized that an engineering educationalapproach based on a capstone design project offered tangible understanding of the field to studentsbut not until it was too late to reasonably change their intended plan of study, a study by Marinand Associates assessed the most important elements including student preparation
