(Pascarella& Terenzini, 1991), the influences of these experiences among engineering students is as yetlittle understood. The absence of such information presents colleges and schools ofengineering with major problems. Industry and the Accreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology (ABET) are bringing increasing pressure on engineering schools to producegraduates who are prepared to engage in unstructured problem solving and to work in groups.ABET is also moving to an assessment-based reaccreditation review process, requiringinstitutions to produce evidence that their programs “prepare graduates for the practice ofengineering at a professional level” (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology,1997, p. 41).This paper reports the

This can be a great learning experience forstudents, but there are many challenges presented to students during the senior design project.The main challenges identified include; project and time management, lack of technical depth,and lack of structure.Engineering management is one of the biggest challenges students face during their senior designprojects. American Society of Engineering management (ASEM) defines engineeringmanagement as “the art and science of planning, organizing, allocating resources, and directingand controlling activities which have a technological component” 1.

In the same bent, the MechanicalEngineering program at Montana State University once required students to keep design journals,but abandoned the practice when journal quality became poor. While the faculty intuitively feltthat journals could be valuable to aspiring engineers, especially in design courses, they haddifficulty assessing journals consistently and guiding students in good journaling practice.As part of a larger research effort to better understand student design processes, I proposed re-instituting journals in the senior capstone
