Using this data, they must create a marketing plan and present it to a panel ofjudges.When not working on their project, participants visit each engineering department. Facultymembers give an overview of the department, usually followed by a tour of the labs or anactivity. For example, a visit to Aerospace Engineering would entail and overview of whataerospace engineers do and the tours of the wind tunnel and Raspet Flight Research Laboratory.Another example would include a visit to Chemical Engineering where the participants would

The technology isavailable to employ this problem-solving method on a corporate level or on the internetlevel. Some companies already employ versions of this method. Industry will be able totake greater advantage of this method as the internet expands.
