, analysisand technical problem solving skills in students. In addition to the topics presented in the text,Engineering Ethics and Material Selection were introduced as separate lectures.The reverse engineering project involved dissecting a product that the students chose and thenput it back together. 160 students in the class were broken into groups of four students and eachgroup chose a specific product to be dissected and analyzed in detail. In this process the studentsgot a broader perspective on engineering decisions. For the product dissected the responsiblegroup investigated the design, answering questions about functionality, aesthetics, manufacturingand other engineering decisions. In doing so, the students explored the global, societal

The outcomes that are assessed are as follows:4Outcome (a): an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, basic science and engineeringscienceOutcome (c): an ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs withinrealistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety,manufacturability, and sustainabilityOutcome (e): an ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problemsOutcome (g): an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary forengineering practiceOutcome (k): an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary forengineering practiceIn the

meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic,environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.”7This outcome refers to the student’s ability to incorporate design decisions into the context oflarger societal and engineering considerations and infers a larger understanding of real-worldtopics beyond what is taught strictly in engineering coursework. By focusing on the broaderrequirements and constraints of a design, ABET requires students to consider their work as “real-life” and the need of the student to know and apply their engineering knowledge. Outcome (e) refers to the student’s ability to not only solve, but identify engineeringproblems.7 This outcome also
