architectures and solutions without due analysis of alternatives (AoA), a lack of multi-disciplined decision making, poor documentation and configuration control, et al. Furtheranalysis indicates these factors are symptomatic of a much larger competency issue traceable toengineering education - the lack of a Systems Engineering fundamentals course. Ideally, a coursetaught by seasoned instructors with in-depth industrial experience acquired from a diversity ofsmall to large, complex systems.To meet program accreditation requirements, industrial needs, and remain competitive, collegesand universities institute a Systems Engineering course or capstone project based on SEprinciples and practices. However, the outcomes of these projects tend to focus on

engineering curriculum, which it saidshould: 2 1. “Provide broad, solid knowledge of key fundamental concepts in science and engineering. These concepts should not be taught only in the abstract but also with constant reference to engineering practice. 2. Provide in-depth engineering study in at least one field. Part of this study should address business and management aspects in that field…. and encompass a focus on global practice- some of which may be captured in a capstone design project.” …. 5. Provide greater flexibility to pursue other careers outside engineering.Among other

25.800.14Research ProjectsBenefitsStudent research projects involve students in empirical observation and the use of currenttechnologies and also motivate them to apply their learning to address topical questions. Kuh1(2008) notes that such projects based on investigation and research can be used to connectconcepts and questions that arise over the duration of a course. They need not be limited toupper-level or capstone courses.Such projects can be beneficial to faculty as they are assisted in their own research (Moore26,2008). Additionally, research by students stands them in good stead to help them to be admittedinto graduate school; the experience is useful in boosting their performance in graduateprograms.

There are usually two projects given in the class. The first project is defined by theinstructor, which helps maintain a focus on course and curriculum objectives. In the secondproject, students are allowed to pick their own topic, which gives them the autonomy to choosetheir own project formulations and strategies, which in turn increases their motivation.Project based learning at the individual course level is familiar in engineering education.
