This raises the demand for non-specialized engineering schools to develop effectiveeducational approaches for Optics and Photonics. At our engineering school, which is locatedwithin a very-high-research institution in the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast region of the U.S., there isone standalone senior-level optics/photonics elective course in which not all chapters from thestandard optics textbook can be covered in a single semester. Thus, what does a school such asours do to maximize undergraduate education in the growing and important area of optics andphotonics?To investigate this challenge within our school of engineering

Lewis, et al. [1]. In our implementation,we allowed student teams to choose from a bank of products and guided them through the fourphases of product archaeology (preparation, excavation, evaluation, and explanation). For theevaluation phase, each team developed and executed three or more qualitative experiments fortheir product. At the conclusion of the project, students wrote a report that addressed the fourphases of product archaeology, including the results of their quantitative experiments.
