this course. With regard to this table, it is importantto note that the WPI academic schedule is based on students taking four terms in an academicyear, with a fifth (optional) summer term. Each term is seven weeks long and three full timecourses/term constitute a full (undergraduate) load. The SE ES capstone course is offered in thefirst term of the year and it is expected that students will take this course concurrent with startingtheir capstone project (MQP but could also be the IQP). A one-term course typically meets fourtimes/week and courses that have laboratory sessions (not this course) also layer in a weekly labsection. A simple calculation shows that as a result of this course/term structure, a typical classwill meet 28 times/term

We now provide a more detailed explanation of thechallenges of the experience, explaining how they applied to this case in particular:-Small college facilities: Compared to large research universities, the laboratory space,equipment, and other resources were quite limited.-Limited budget: In line with the above, financial resources were modest as well.-Multidisciplinary team and project: With a professor of electrical engineering mentoring astudent with a mechanical engineering concentration, both student and instructor would need tobranch out beyond their comfort zone to tackle the

The language course providedinstruction primarily in the context of writing lab reports as the main communication-relateddeliverable of the program. Over two terms, students perform 10 laboratory experiments inAPSC 182 and must write lab reports for each one. The different tasks assigned to students inVANT 140 were designed to help them develop both general technical communication skills andgenre-specific

The purpose of the meeting is to tie together conceptualloose ends that the students may have regarding their design and to be able to refine thedesign based on professional “in the field” guidance and experience. The meeting withthe expert may lead to the need to collect different and/or more pieces of data. Thismeeting may also result in a new iteration producing additional design options and,consequently, more than one cost estimate.Cost estimate and design revision.

Several instructors havemade a connection between the art and areas of study (see the examples above and the“laboratory” uses that follow) but it does not reflect the student, or campus experience, and thiswas the focus of the discussion in August of 2019.Students immediately articulated a wish for art that would identify the campus as a place where“we’re proud to be engineers.” A discussion of a possible mural (on the aforementionedutilitarian buildings) led into a
