suggestions for designing similar engineering leadership programs in the future.IntroductionFast-paced technological transformation and innovation demands not only technical expertisefrom future engineers, but also multiple soft skills, in particular leadership [1]. Crumpton-Young indicated that engineering leadership is the influence and ability to lead otherengineers and technical staff to design, create, innovate, implement and evaluate and assessservices and products [2]. MIT-Gordon engineering leadership program describes engineeringleadership as a set of capabilities and values that enable a person to accomplish a multi-disciplinary complex project by leading teams instead of functioning as an individualtechnical contributor.

Forexample, in the capstone design courses and projects, students can use relatively inexpensivemicrocontrollers such as Arduino, Raspberry PI, and Beaglebone to serve as complementaryhardware with the myDAQ from National Instruments. These affordable microcontrollers havebeen investigated or used by past student group projects. Instructors can also use myDAQ andthe microcontrollers to demonstrate key concepts found in circuit analysis and electronicscourses. To further promote user engagement, any student questions raised from the interactiveand multimedia content can be addressed in the online and required interactive chat sessions.From an online perspective, synchronous delivery

in the open-ended responses about these team-basedapplied projects was that most occur at the end of the program, usually acting as a capstone orsenior project. As a result, many these projects occur as part of academic classes within theirrespective programs. Projects tend to be tailored to meet the needs of different majors, as well asthe current needs of industry and the community. For example, some of these projects maybenefit the community or a company by having students build a product that can be used (e.g., apiece of specialized equipment or a campus bridge). Likewise, these applied products help thestudent gain direct experience (e.g., skills and knowledge) working on a specialized project intheir field of interest (e.g., a

The pilot interview was qualitative, semi-structured, and open-ended in nature.2,3 Theinterview protocol is listed in table 4.In order to explore students’ ability to recognize and identify mechatronics, instrumentation, andexperimental design concepts without biasing their answers at the initiation of the interview, theprotocol followed a specified format. The first stage of the interview allowed the students toexplain their senior design project (i.e. their roles, problems faced, and stage in design).

Barriers that exist for integrative learning in higher education today often point to afragmented undergraduate curriculum (collections of independent classes in general education,specialized study, and electives) and the organization of knowledge into distinct and separatecolleges and departments, “even though scholarship, learning, and life have no such artificialboundaries” (p. 16) (7).

These moretraditional approaches provide a beneficial learning experience and support integrating thevarious components of the SE body of knowledge, but are limited by time and domain. Thecapstone is usually a single project and at most a year in length. If it covers the full lifecycle,then it must be a fairly simple project and most likely represents only one domain. An internshipis even more limited, given that few companies would assign a student to a significant role orprovide much variation

Specifically, we have developed aSDR based general modulation/demodulation platform with a graphical user interface (GUI).This user-friendly GUI will allow students to adjust RF parameters such as carrier frequency andsymbol rate. More importantly, this general modulation/demodulation platform is capable oftransmitting many popular modulation schemes such as BPSK, QPSK, 8PSK, 16PSK, 16QAM,64QAM.

This course is ideal for service learningbecause students struggle with the material, complaining it is “too theoretical”, and can feelanonymous in a large lecture course. Yet, there are few examples of how to successfullyintegrate service-learning ideas, including reflection activities, into a high-enrollment course thattraditionally focuses heavily on quantitative fundamentals.This paper details the design, student work
