ofthe Program. Along with the 45 hours of engineering course work, students must complete 9hours of upper division physics courses includes 6 hours of advanced electricity and magnetism.To prepare students for the capstone sequence their senior year they complete the engineeringand sciences courses in Table 1. The Program from the outset has been developed with noincrease in operating budget. While funds were provided for faculty lines associated with theProgram, no new operating funds have been identified. Laboratory equipment has been providedin conjunction with the construction of new space dedicated to the Program. The Program hasbeen designed to use only open-source software for instruction. This provides a cost savings forthe University

, actuation, and control are integral to smart devices with embedded microcontrollers.Arduino and Raspberry Pi microcontrollers and single-board computers can be interfaced withvarious sensors and actuators and incorporated into mechanical devices to perform a variety ofintelligent functions using appropriate software programming. Over and above themultidisciplinary graduate and undergraduate students that are hired to advance the proposalobjectives, project assignments integral to “Instrumentation” and “Control Systems” coursesoffered by the principal author to juniors in the engineering program endeavor to integrate the out-of-classroom field and laboratory efforts with the course requirements to introduce a larger poolof students to growing

with the handling and correct application of tools, instruments, and laboratory equipment. • encourage group work and student integration. • develop competence in oral and written communication. • encourage the search for technological innovations in the development of engineering projects.Figure 1 - Objectives of an integrated project This work aims to present the details of the integrated and multidisciplinary project,applied from 2019 to 2022 in the Control and Automation Engineering course at the MauáInstitute of Technology. During this period, around 40 students per year were analyzed,always from the 4th year of the course, divided into approximately 10 teams per year

adjusted manually.Figure 3. Mechanical system (A picture on the left, the motorized light on the top right, and the placement on a cart on the bottom right) For the further testing, this test chamber may need to placed outside of the laboratory. For thisreason, this instrumentation was designed to be mobile by placing on a cart as shown bottomright of Figure 3. This placement on a cart is effective since it can be easily relocatable as 2023 ASEE Annual Conference & Expositionneeded. There are two tires placed inside the chamber, and this specific dimension of thechamber was optimized up to two tires.C. Software design Software architecture is shown in Figure 4.
