ABETrelated learning outcomes.IntroductionEngineering programs have been striving to provide students with numerous opportunities forintegrative experiences [1]. Universities and colleges have created introductory freshmenengineering courses [2] with the intent to provide students opportunity to learn about variousengineering disciplines through hands-on, problem solving, engineering design experiencesbefore they decide on a particular engineering field. The courses have been very effective inpreparing students for the structured and rigorous engineering program, which is evidenced byincreasing retention and graduation rates [2]. Another approach to enhancing engineeringeducation experiences is Project Based Learning [3] which has proven to be very

institutions like IUPUI meet certain accreditation requirements and requires thateach program develops a continuous improvement plan. The improvement plan typically consistsof a compilation of student materials, employer surveys, and course evaluations used to ensurecontinuous improvement within a program. In 2004 IUPUI, MET program faculty decided that astandardized senior examination would be part of the program process improvement process, [1].IntroductionThe Department of Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) at IUPUI, has applied a seniorassessment examination as part of the senior capstone course for the past 12 years. It is designedto test the knowledge of MET seniors on core-MET subject areas. The Senior Assessment Examcontains questions and

Even though, multiple courses in Engineering Technology cover topics related tothe electrical technology, it is still hard for students to understand the concept of optimal motorselection and determination of its performance over load, specifically for students in MechanicalEngineering Technology.1 Therefore, the goal of this paper is to prepare a specific learning moduleon Electric Motors Modeling, Control and Testing (LM-EMMCT).

This summary of responsibilities suggeststhat facility management is a multi-faceted discipline that involves management of physicalspace, people and time. Therefore, the facility management role draws from many topicsincluding decision making, information management, organizational and servicemanagement [2].

When this happens, additional costs in scrap and reworkwould result and may extend to warranty charges and customer dissatisfaction shouldunacceptable products find their way to the customer.In this paper, issues resulting from tolerance stack-up in capstone production will be addressed.The questions this paper will attempt to answer are: (1) Are students aware of the impact oftolerance stack-up in product development, and (2) What can be done to minimize the potentialeffects of tolerance stack-up before

However, these students often have a hard time visualizing and identifying energymagnitudes and/or energy flow paths. In other words, students can calculate how much energy ittakes to perform a job but it is difficult for them to know if the resulting calculation is reasonableor not.
