The current study explores the specifics ofthe coaching process in the context of mentoring engineering student design teams. The currentstudy provides insight into the types of roadblocks design teams face and how our teachingstrategies can help teams overcome these challenges. By aligning our teaching and coachingstrategies with the actual learning and project needs of student design teams we are betterpositioned to produce effective, future design engineers.IntroductionDesign courses emphasize learning-by-doing and applying knowledge and skills to developfeasible solutions to real needs.

Thechallenges of covering a core analog electronics curriculum to enable students to continue in thefield and yet provide a rich design experience that will inspire students to remain in theelectronics specialization are discussed. The course placement within the undergraduatecurriculum is considered and the impact of this type of course on the prerequisite and post-requisite courses presented. Student acquisition of skills is assessed anecdotally and empirically.IntroductionTraditional approaches to engineering education have introduced students to real-world design ina scattered manner with limited exposure to design practices.1 A deficiency has been noted toexist at the

We report on studentsatisfaction associated with team formation, project selection, and project presentation aspects.For each of these aspects, an interactive, virtual conferencing platform is utilized in whichparticipants can freely move between small informal groups at any time. This platform'sstructure is designed to mimic a traditional in-person exhibition. Participants can listen topresentations at tables, ask questions, talk individually, and move to a different location at theirdiscretion.

Also, results of a literature search demonstrate thatnuclear engineering projects are exceedingly rare within interdisciplinary senior design.Therefore, a project management framework using results from an exploration of the literatureon interdisciplinary senior design to identify salient issues pertaining to nuclear engineering ispresented. Issues include raising awareness among faculty mentors from different subject areasabout potential project areas; addressing nuclear specific codes and standards; and challengeswhen working across disciplines in project funding, the student team formation process, studentcredit hours granted, and workload allocation for faculty advisors to the projects

Developing a Computer Engineering Capstone Design Course with a Startup CompanyAbstractEngineering faculty responsible for leading capstone projects are often faced with challenges indefining project topics for students. There is an ongoing need for developing new project topicsthat can be tackled by teams of upper-division undergraduate students. In contrast, during theearly phases of establishing a profitable business, many startup companies are faced with anoverwhelming number of research and development tasks required to build innovative products.Due to constraints in engineering resources or subject matter expertise, some of these projectsmay be deferred or left unsolved within the startup organization. Some of these

positive changes to thesuccess of the course and improvements in learning outcomes. The most significant impact hasarisen from changing the focus of the pre-capstone course from completing projects that utilizedspecific knowledge domains of electrical engineering to defining and modeling the designprocess by establishing project milestones which follow the design process. A second changethat had large positive impact on student success is developing resources to improve teamfunctioning, matching team size to project complexity, and creating a project manager role oneach team. Finally, changes to the learning environment which mimic an actual professionalworkplace and reduce the barriers to completing design projects have proven effective

Arguments havebeen made that all capstone design projects must include engineering standards from theappropriate professional society: IEEE Standards for electrical and computer engineers, ASMEStandards for mechanical engineers, and so on. However, members of the educationalcommunity have objected to this approach
