The first module is anintroduction to systems engineering while other modules relate to systems engineering toolsthat are taught „just-in-time‟ to support completion of the capstone design projects.Implementation Method:The SE training modules were developed by an Industrial and Systems Engineering facultymember under the consultation of the Assistant Director of Wayne State University‟s Office ofTeaching and Learning.The process began with the development of an instructional design matrix which included:Instructional Goal, Objectives, Assessment Methodology, Information Presentation, Practiceand Feedback, and the Media and Materials to be used (4). An example of an InstructionalGoal was: “Students will be able to

directs them to LU’s admissions office and college ofengineering (COE) advisement office. LU’s admissions office reviews each candidate’sapplication and performs the transcript(s) analyses. Only after a student is admitted, LU’s COEadvisement office creates a degree plan for the student. Each student must apply and be acceptedto LU before their transcript(s) are evaluated and a degree plan can be created. However, duringthis process, the department and the COE advisement office provide general feedback toprospective student questions. Answering the simple question of what is required for a transferstudent to graduate often is a labor intensive process especially for students who take coursesoutside of Texas or take courses at multiple
courses. I will provide more handouts and stressmore on this aspect in IE 417 in the future.7- ConclusionThere are many extraneous obstacles in teaching OR courses. These include both the timelimitation on covering various important topics as well as the inadequate mathematicsbackground of many students. It is important to efficiently use the resources available to teachOR concepts and improve analytical and communication skills. This is best achieved throughreport writing. “Report to a Manager” is used as a tool to enhance learning important ORconcepts as well as encouraging students to critically think about the solution outputs from ORsoftwares. This implemented pedagogy has proved to be effective.Bibliography[1] Parisay, S., "Multimedia and

IE to an organization.1 IntroductionSince the mid-90’s, lean has been a hot topic among practitioners of industrial engineering. Theannual IIE Solutions Conference features many sessions promoting lean and helping attendeeslearn to apply lean concepts in their jobs. IIE has held focused Lean Conferences. In San Diego,the IIE Chapter meetings featuring lean are the best attended events. Other organizationsincluding AME, APICS, ASQ, INCOSE, and SME offer lean meeting programs. Professionalorganizations and for-profit groups have developed lean certificate programs. Universities alsooffer lean programs, but these are often offered by Schools of Business Administration, orthrough extension programs.And yet few industrial engineering programs

These areskills that are not taught in most engineering curriculums prior to the capstone course(s). Ourobservations are consistent with the observations by other researchers who have studied thedesign process. Wilson et. al 2 highlighted how students in the capstone course setting strugglewith setting milestones and soliciting feedback at the right times. Developing and effectivelycommunicating the project plan and status are critical to the success of the project.
