AC 2008-2037: CAN DESIGN BE A COMMON GROUND AMONG DISCIPLINES?Shanna Daly, Purdue UniversityRobin Adams, Purdue University Page 13.273.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2008 Can Design Be A Common Ground Among Disciplines?AbstractThe act of designing is a complex activity with many facets, including multiple degreesof freedom, context, constraints, and an open-ended and ill-defined nature. Design hasoften been uniquely associated with fields within engineering, however several designscholars have highlighted that design is central to many fields outside of engineering aswell. The artifacts resulting from design tasks may differ significantly from

Science, Technology,Engineering and Math (STEM) degree programs is one way to help to address this problem. TheHigh Altitude Research Platform (HARP) system does this by teaching the scientific methodthrough applying experiments in the near space field. These experiments are developed bystudents using microelectronics (GPS, wireless, videos, miniature sensors, etc.). The programdesires to train students to practically apply theory to real-life problems making them betterprepared for graduate school or employment in industry. Students learn to solve problems andovercome obstacles by performing original experiments in real world settings. Page
