without exposureto real-world projects during the course of the technical education may neither develop theseimportant skills nor gain sufficient motivation to pursue careers in engineering. We thereforebelieve that the introduction of challenge-based engineering curricula and/or projects will createa favorable atmosphere for creativity, innovation, increased participation and teamwork.In this paper, we present the experiences and student learning outcomes when a group ofundergraduate students from diverse science and engineering disciplines (non-ocean engineeringdisciplines) were exposed to challenge-based ocean engineering project. The team consisted of 7undergraduate students (1 freshman, 2 sophomores, 2 juniors, and 2 seniors) from

presents its habitat design to a panelof volunteer faculty members and classmates who critique both the design and the team’s oralpresentation.This paper provides insights into the project tasking; the roles and responsibilities of the differentdesign engineers; and the basic engineering considerations and computations required of the finaldesign. It addresses typical conflict issues arising among team members and the means to theirresolution, and presents elements – both positive and negative – of the typical team presentation.Achievement of project learning goals and a summary of assessment results are also discussed.IntroductionThe Hex-Oid Habitat (H-O-H) Design Challenge is an academic exercise developed for theocean engineering program at the

May 2015. This is the firstcoastal or ocean engineering graduate program at an Historic Black College or University(HBCU). Students may choose a thesis, project or course only option. All options require anoral examination. Seven core courses, one mandatory, comprise the coastal engineeringconcentration. The student may select elective courses from among a large variety of civil andenvironmental engineering graduate courses. This flexibility enables the graduate student totailor coursework to their major civil engineering area(s) of career interest. Laboratory facilitiespotentially available to students are briefly described. The program has a coastal natural disasterfocus and was established as part of the Coastal Hazards Center of

and creating a valid ship structural model, it ispossible to incorporate its use into general naval architecture courses without the requirement tobecome an expert in structural finite element analysis. The use of MAESTRO in the graduateprogram affords the students greater insight into ship structural response to load effects that arenot always accurately analyzed by current manual methods (simple prismatic beam analysis). Inthe undergraduate program, the students use MAESTRO to develop a structural model as part oftheir senior ship design project. There has been difficulty in the undergraduate program in thedevelopment of a whole ship model, but the software allows the mid-portion of the ship structureto be easily created. In both the
