Society for Engineering Education, 2021Capstone Projects Focused on the Evaluation of Existing StructuresAbstractStudents of Structural Analysis and Design Engineering Technology of the University ofHouston Downtown (UHD) are required to develop a capstone project covering the designtheory and concepts developed in their courses. This paper presents the results of capstoneprojects that encompass the evaluation of existing structures, which were designed followingbuilding codes from more than 50 years ago.The projects studied and discussed in this paper are the superstructure of the bridge “Travis St.over Buffalo Bayou”, located in Houston, TX; and the roof of the “Roberto Clemente” coliseum,located in San Juan, PR. Both have been in service since

, and embedded systems. American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Senior Elective Communications Systems Courses as Pathway to Capstone Projects in Electrical Engineering Technology ProgramAbstractIn any engineering program the capstone project is the most comprehensive work completed bythe students, and is regarded as the pinnacle of their engineering studies, with all their coursework culminating with this major design, implementation and reporting product. Coming up withthe actual topic of the project is sometimes the most difficult part of the project, especially inprograms where the project topics are not solely proposed by the faculty, and they are for

their freshmen through junioracademic years is expected to form a strong foundation for the senior capstone project (animplicit goal of most courses within the MET degree program). At the capstone level,students undertake a relatively unstructured, broadly-defined, real-world problem.Progressing from project-based to problem-based learning is facilitated throughcompletion of the carousel project in dynamics.12 Scaffolded problem and projectlearning experiences such as the carousel project increase depth of student understanding,build students’ confidence in their technical knowledge, and prepare them for moresubstantial subsequent problem solving.

Professor, School of Engineering Technology Purdue University mshehadi@purdue.eduAbstractFormula-1 (F1) racing cars aerodynamic effects are mainly controlled by the body contours andother aerodynamic elements such as over-body wings. Over-body wings tend to force the cardownwards but would increase the drag force on the car. This capstone project investigated theground effects on a scaled F1 car by testing the down force and drag force with and withoutground effects. To meet the objectives, an 8.8 feet-long (2.93 m) wind tunnel was built by theteam having a 6 × 6 sq.in (3.34 m2) cross-section testing chamber running air at an approximatespeed of 34 miles per hour (mph

interdisciplinary BS of Applied Science degree program combines the fieldsof computer science, computer engineering, mechanical engineering and electrical engineeringtechnology. The proposed program will require 124 credits of undergraduate work including aone-year-long senior design project capstone requirement. The program consists of lab-intensiveapplied courses, which will be delivered in the robotics labs. Three new courses will bedeveloped to promote and enhance robotics education in the new RET program. Table 1 presentsan outline of the proposed RET curriculum requirements. The RET courses will be offered in ahybrid format which includes some modules being offered online or through distance learning.The program will also be open to students

Design Projects, which the author co-taught for several years. We also found that students generally tended to avoid DAQ for their Capstone Design Projects. As mentioned, the students use NI USB 6001 (previously NI USB 6008) as the DAQ for this class. They are required to compare and report on pros and cons for up to four different DAQs from different manufacturers. After this introduction, the number of capstone design projects that used DAQ increased. ● Basic programming blocks and structures used in various computer i/o systems software. For example: sequential structure, for and while loops, decision structures (e.g., like if, if then else, switch, case) Boolean logic. Designing modules for

(3 credit hours) - at SUNY Buffalo State replaced a single-semester course.The transition from a single-semester to a two-semester sequence allows for more time for thestudents to design and conduct design projects that involve learning and applying researchmethodologies. This sequence integrates knowledge gained by students in prior coursesincluding but not limited to Electronics, Digital Systems, Microcontrollers, and Control SystemsI and II. ENT 465 and ENT 466 are taken by all Electrical Engineering Technology students inthe fall and spring semesters of their senior year.The senior design sequence serves as a capstone and integrating experience that further developsstudent competencies in applying both technical and non-technical

online. Specifically, the campus itself was closed to students and faculty alike, resulting in a hands-on laboratory component that shifted to an ad-hoc “kitchen table” video demonstration format. For senior capstone industrial sponsored projects, the team meetings, sponsor interactions, and project presentations were all converted to a “virtual” format. However, the biggest thing I missed was the interaction with the students in the classroom. I felt the environment was not as interactive and the students tended not to be as engaged. Course content was delivered virtually with lab videos recorded showing how the labs were performed (by the instructor) and the data were collected and sent to the students
