are requiredto design, build and validate all of the required manufacturing documentation and fixturingfor use during the production of their product. The student design teams execute a pilotproduction run to validate documentation and fixtures and then they refine the manufacturingand production process to efficiently produce the products. The capstone course ends with asix-hour production run, where the students lead a group of their peers to build between 15and 21 products. To incorporate the practice of integrated manufacturing systems into thiscourse, students are also required to design, simulate and analyze a fully automatedproduction line for their products which includes production stations, material handlingsystems, storage systems

Cu complexsolution showed 2.419 (+/- 0.053) weight percent of Cu in the liquid solution when tested by theXRF analyzer. These results suggest that upon curing a greater amount of Cu metal is impartedto the polymer film and may be unevenly distributed throughout its 1.0 mm thickness within the1 cm diameter area of analysis. Figure 2 in the presented poster is an optical photograph of theelectrochemical test cell set-up configured to date. As of the writing of this REU report,electrochemical test results are pending.Mechanical Results - The Instron 2716-020 used for tensile testing and to estimate the modulusof elasticity was not sensitive enough to measure the strength of these films. Unistrut scaffoldingwas employed to fix the polymer films

, amenability to visualdemonstrations, remotely operated laboratory activities integrated with well-developed lecturesoffers excellent means for attracting students to engineering and engineering technology[2].Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer course is a three hour-credit junior to senior undergraduatecore curriculum course designed for all ET students.This course was developed as being writing intensive but also one of the main precursors ofCapstone project, having embedded in its curricula a final student-led team project that has itsmain outcome a working prototype of a thermo-fluid system. While the pre-requisites for thiscourse do not include traditional senior courses for mechanical engineering technology such asfluid mechanics (only Fluid Power
