DesignAbstractOne approach to look at student learning is to identify “threshold concepts.” These are conceptsthat, once grasped, allow students to engage with the material in a fundamentally different way.First described by Meyer and Land [1], these concepts are transformative, irreversible,integrative, and troublesome. The process of mastering a threshold concept (TC) meanstraversing a liminal space during which the student is changed. Looking inward at our owncapstone program, we identified three candidate TCs: (1) Complex engineering problems arebest solved by teams working together. (2) A team can learn a lot from a prototype, even(especially?) when it doesn’t work. (3) The goal isn’t to find the right answer, but to learn aprocess by which a

Local industry advisors have mentioned that they look forreadily transferrable skills such as MatLab in potential interns or co-op students.Previously, MatLab and CAD work was introduced as part of a one-semester introduction toengineering design class. We have chosen to separate the MatLab and CAD components intotheir own courses so students could get more extensive practice in these programs. All incomingengineering students will be required to take this course, making it an opportunity for earlycohort building as well.The CAD work that had been in Intro to Engineering Design is now its own class in the secondsemester.

Through department surveys,approximately 70% of students indicated they would pursue engineering employment post-baccalaureate. However, only 14% could secure a position before graduation, with 54% of thisgroup acquiring a full-time position. Only 48% of students stated that their Universityexperiences had prepared them for the job market.

, curriculumIntroductionCivil engineers serve as master builders, environmental stewards, innovators and integrators,managers of risk and uncertainty, and leaders in shaping public policy (ASCE, 2019). Civilengineering has a significant impact on the environment, and it is crucial to ensure thatinfrastructure development is sustainable and does not harm the natural environment. Therefore,civil engineering education must emphasize sustainability and educate future civil engineers onthe sustainable design, construction, and operation of infrastructure systems. Although buildingsare perceived to be the most advanced field in relation to sustainability (Mesa et al., 2017),students graduating with civil engineering degrees who work on building and infrastructureprojects do
engineer’s ability to use simulation software continues to grow in importance. Engineeringstudents need simulation experience, and providing it as they simultaneously learn to apply thetraditional core principles has multiple benefits. A first course in Fluid Mechanics covers awide range of applied principles and CFD can be used to enhance the underlying conceptsrelating pressure and flow[1] . While modern engineering tools can add legitimacy to coursecontent students may perceive as old-school approaches, a solid foundation in these are neededto knowledgably apply simulation software[2]. To truly master CFD, students would need muchmore instruction than is possible in a junior-year one semester course, but simulation can be usedto supplement

The startup script which includes the sensor reading script and the master scriptthat handles the car’s controls is more reliable on the Raspberry Pi 4 (4-8GB RAM) than RaspberryPi 3 (1GB RAM). The upgrade to Raspberry Pi 4 decreased latency and allowed the cars to bemore responsive at higher speeds. With around 35 ms runtime, the driving essentially ran at 28.5fps. This means the driving code itself was fairly efficient.The RC car used for testing is 27cm wide, 41cm long, and 18 cm high.
