], expanding diversity [5], gainingexperience with industry [6] and even to incorporate service learning into engineering curricula[7]. Mini projects have been implemented in the past for various ends, including ABETassessment [8]. Largely, these courses help to teach the many “soft skills” that students will needin their professional careers.However, there is an additional set of soft skills that students need to succeed in these capstonecourses. To that end, our electrical engineering department has added a senior-level course priorto the capstone course. While such a course shares the learning outcomes with the final seniordesign capstone, this course specifically aims to develop soft skills of working with off-the-shelftechnology so that in the

separate designvectors, and to demonstrate the behavior in a physical test or application. The activities will alsoshowcase different modes of failure of mechanical components, and the uncertainty that lieswithin the material itself or within the process of manufacturing. Focusing the activities in a self-learning group environment, students’ learning experience will be greatly improved in tandemwith their soft skills: reporting, communications, and planning [2].To promote a better interest in the overall learning outcomes, the series of activities arestructured to combine their knowledge and culminate to a final project competition for the designof a planar-truss. A competition can bolster the intellectual maturity of students who begin torealize
