That was thereason that the author went back to the toy design projects. The learning experience is similar toa capstone project where students need to start with a concept and follow through theengineering design and development process to reach the final prototyping stage.While most of the teams attempt to be creative and develop a new concept, some teams resort tomodifying or reengineering existing toy designs.

The ‘front end’ project plan and the ‘back end’documentation and presentation are both important elements. Since the entrance into thecapstone projects follows the completion of other courses, faculty project advisors canassign problems that are not only relevant to the students’ interests but are also helpful inreinforcing the concepts taught. Each class runs for two instructional months. Althoughthe capstone course is done at the end, students are encouraged to identify and select a

engineeringsciences to place them closer to the engineering side of the spectrum. As a consequence, thecreation of the engineering programs could be accomplished through additional classes inmathematics, expansion of use of this new material in existing classes, increase in designexperiences in the curriculum, and the expansion of the capstone project experience. The need toadd significant additional new content as new classes was limited to the areas of Design forManufacture and Assembly and Machine Design. Table 1 summarizes the courses offered in thenew program. More details on the challenges of creating a program by transition will bediscussed in a later section of this paper. Page 26.393.5

core component of any engineering education. Most students take someform of engineering design in their capstone experience, as is recommended by ABET [1].Recently, however, more opportunities for this work have been created for underclassmen.Studies have shown that placing team-based engineering design earlier in an engineeringcurriculum can provide students with valuable teamwork skills and connections to real-worldengineering work, as well as increase retention of material learned in class [2]. Teaching designfreshman year increases retention of women and underrepresented minorities[3]. It also providesrelevance and context to young engineers’ careers.While there is an increased interest in teaching engineering design, understanding how to

manufacturing in both of these disciplinesis needed8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce [10].Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the seniordesign or capstone course. McMasters and Lang indicate that few people in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is undertaken. Through design projects,the inclusion of industry partners in the education process will enhance the education provided tothe students and better reflect the expectations of industry [11]. Universities are exposingstudents to manufacturing through senior capstone design courses to offer students with arealistic
