Inthis paper, we present how each course in the six-course sequence builds off the prior providingmoderate instruction over a long period of time and building developmentally on prior learningoutcomes, all while in the context of authentic and meaningful PBL experiences. It is such skillsand attitudes that students learn and practice over a long period of time (with regular

This paper concerns two of these elevenoutcomes (c and k) which require that students graduate with: (c) an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability. (k) an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice. Page

By working on these projects, students obtain first hand feedback from the end user. Thishelps students obtain a clear picture of the health and wealth of public, and to disclose promptlythe factors that might endanger the end user. By working with end user, but not the corporateindustries, students have the ability to approach system design based on usability rather thanmonetary profits, realizing the ethical responsibility of engineers. Largely, TGR platform helpsstudents use

company-sponsored, product- oriented capstone design programs. As part of the mission of the Engineering Education Innovation Cen- ter (EEIC), Rogers has led the development of an ABET-approved curriculum for a year-long Capstone experience. With a focus on providing students with a broader experience base, the multidisciplinary program applies teams of engineers, business, design, and other students to work with Ohio companies to help them be more competitive. Teams apply a company’s core competencies to help develop new products and markets. This experiential learning emphasizes real-world problem solving, professional communication and ethics, teamwork, and implementation of a formalized design process. Additionally
