solving is an important skill for engineers. Among the most common waysthat open-ended problem solving is incorporated in the curriculum is through capstone designexperiences. Although ubiquitous in undergraduate degree programs2,8, capstone design has alsobeen included in master’s degree programs, sometimes in place of the thesis4 or as a non-thesisoption for students on an industry-oriented career track6. Typically these capstone experiencesintegrate technical skills from multiple classes, and in some cases, they span multiple semesters.The literature on undergraduate capstone design offers insight into important factors for asuccessful industry-based project2. Attributes of effective client projects include the involvementof a company liaison

c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Building the Design Competence in Industrial Engineering Junior Students through realistic constraints of the Operations and Logistics LaboratoryAbstractThis paper provides a laboratory development experience through a product design projectwith junior students of the Industrial Engineering (IE) program in Universidad del Norte,Barranquilla, Colombia. In the course “Productive Systems Design” (PSD) the students hadthe opportunity to develop their final project according to the needs of the Operations andLogistics lab, which serves around 6 courses of the IE department. Students wereintroduced to a challenge: to design a product with its manufacturing process

working in a marketing research firm. Practicumexperiences also allow students to design and develop a project in which they applyknowledge and develop skills such as a doctoral student preparing the components of anonline course. Service Learning Experiences are distinguished by being mutually beneficial for bothstudent and community. Service learning is growing rapidly and is considered a part ofexperiential education by its very nature of learning, performing a job within the community,and serious reflection by the student. Service learning involves solving some of society'sissues; such as, homelessness, poverty, lack of quality education, pollution, etc. One of thegoals of service learning is to help students become aware of these issues

. Courses are often integrated into these two major fields to allow for some exposure to themanufacturing industry. A paper in the Journal of Engineering Education notes that amovement to move to higher course content on manufacturing in both of these disciplines isneeded8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce.Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the senior“Capstone” design project course. McMasters and Lang believe that too few in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is set-up. Therefore, if industry partnersare brought into the education process through design projects
