This real customer interaction fosters empathetic design whileproviding a more meaningful classroom experience as students are able to see directly theimpact their designs have in creating real value – value as it is defined, not by the student orinstructor, but by their customer. In the junior year, engineering students are typically engaged in much of theirdiscipline-specific engineering coursework. Thus, this thread of entrepreneurially mindedlearning is extended by means of discipline-specific applications through projects deployed inmultiple junior-level courses.

provided framework. This approach requires the student to approach the designfirst with an inquisitorial attitude, searching to understand the framework that has been set up forthem. Once this understanding is complete (or sufficient), the student and his or her teammatesare able to embark upon the completion of the design requirements. It is hoped that this technique achieves multiple benefits. First, the techniques will allowthe students to see the framework of a successful design before beginning their ownimplementation. This helps visualize a successful design as a team before they are thrown intothe throes of their senior capstone design project. Second, the techniques remove some of thetedious work that should be covered in
