. First-year projects differ across universities, but typical projects can include a focus ondesigning and building prototypes, working in teams, full- and small-scale projects, case-studyanalysis, reverse engineering, and the integration of engineering, math, and science courses 2.The course described in this paper builds on the effective components of project-based, hands-onfirst-year design projects, and uses the human centered design process to frame an approachwhere students are encouraged to incorporate the user, environment, and ethical considerationsthroughout the process. The course has capacity for over 1,600 students annually at theUniversity of Florida providing meaningful individual hands-on makerspace skills to eachstudent, and

plays an essential role in the design curriculum forengineering students to construct their ability to meet the requirements of industry andsharpen their integrated design skills, and meanwhile, to meet the ABET criteria. However, the most common form of capstone design course in China is research-oriented. It is based on students’ individual projects mainly supervised and sponsored byprofessors, in which students are expected to acquire in-depth knowledge. However, thiskind of capstone design has some significant drawbacks, such as lack of teamwork, designcommunication, problem identification, and system engineering thinking, etc., which are 1ranked as top of core competencies by industry.

program begins in thesummer semester and completes in the spring with students being off campus for the fall.The program is multidisciplinary in nature drawing from mechanical, electrical and computerengineering curriculums. When this program began, there were more electrical and computerengineers than mechanical. However, in recent years this ratio is typically 50-70% mechanicalengineers and a mixture of electrical and computer engineers. The computer and electricalengineers tend to gravitate toward working on control and electronic issues while the mechanicalengineers focus on aircraft design, aerodynamics and experimentation. For the multispectralanalysis there is usually an equal mix from both groups.While the traditional capstone design

changethe market dynamics of CAD design through revitalization of the design curriculum. Thoughuniversities currently exhibit full design cycles across a variety of courses spread out in differentsemesters, it could be of major benefit for universities to integrate student extracurricular designteams as a part of the engineering curriculum. The ingrained collaboration required in designteams, as well as the cross-disciplinary interaction of students, academic mentors/advisors andindustry sponsors, is the most realistic analogue to the full end-to-end design cycle currentlypresent in an academic setting. In addition, since the competitive aspect of design competitionsto create superior designs push students to explore new/creative design avenues

-Centered Design has risen to prominence as an approach that enables designers toclearly understand the unmet needs for which they are designing and to develop solutions thataddress these directly [2], [19], [20]. Despite this popularity and utility, human-centeredconsideration faces resistance in engineering spaces which often seem to prefer quantitative, ratherthan qualitative objectives. By integrating engineering experiential learning (e.g. manufacturinglabs, product dissection) with human-centered design practices (e.g. empathizing withstakeholders, using narrative methods to share ideas and get feedback) students can develop skillsthat expand on those gained from traditional engineering problem sets, and more closely resemblereal-world

Performance and visual art galleries and laboratories,educator spaces, and libraries are often locations on campus where makerspaces can be found[1], [6]. Makerspaces create intersections between multiple disciplines [7].Makerspaces provide a wide range of opportunities to supplement engineering curriculum withhighly valuable non-technical skills.

What are the main factors that influence engineering students' epistemologicaldevelopment in the context of SDPs?Literature review SDPs stand as an important bridge for engineering students’ transition from schoolto working environment. As the last learning stage before graduation, it represents aunique opportunity for engineering students to integrate what they have learned in classwith the real engineering world, applying theoretical knowledge to solve actualproblems.

The type of learning or service to beprovided, however, depends on the hermeneutics applied, which can either lead to groupempowerment and socio-technical change or to mere paternalism.In the early 2000s, during the two terms of Lula as president of Brazil, many community service/service-learning teams were established and institutionalized, linked to engineering courses andfaculty members.

One is that in this way more childrenhave access to the curriculum that integrates computer science principles, not just thoseundergraduate students in specific STEM majors.
