Edwards Deming, Russell Ackoff, Peter Senge, andMargaret Wheatley, and outlining some of the central lessons that would enable a person familiarwith systems thinking to make a difference at an interpersonal, team, and organizational level.ForresterKnown and credited for being the creator of the field of systems dynamics in the mid 1950’s, JayForrester’s ideas about the behavior of systems began to emerge long before. Born in Nebraskaon July 14, 1918, Jay W. Forrester went on to received a B.S. degree in electrical engineeringfrom the University of Nebraska in 1939 and his M.S. degree from MIT in 1945. He stayed on tobecome director of MIT's Lincoln Digital Computer Laboratory until he changed his focus
problem since they were absent fromthe site when the concrete was placed. Consequently, they later built up the near side of thebridge by anchoring stacked 2x6’s into the concrete footer to bring it back to level and to provideproper support and connection for the bridge.IV. AssessmentStudent web-based assessments at the end of the experience were extremely supportive ofdesign-build projects. Students responded to web-based statements using a scale of 1-5 (stronglydisagree – strongly agree). The responses (Table 1) for the project were compared to theaverages for USMA, the department, and the course depending on what level the statements weregenerated at.This design-build project was one of 20 separate capstone projects during the spring

project portalDuring Spring 2013, the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs at the College of Engineering(CoE) at Georgia Tech invited faculty and administrators from various schools within theCollege to collaboratively discuss possible pathways for developing a CoE or Institute-wideCapstone Design program. The faculty discussed several challenges, ranging from differences incurriculum requirements for individual schools, incompatibility between Schools having multi-semester Capstone Design sequence v/s a single semester, adequate scoping of projects, facultyload-sharing, etc. (some of which were similar to the ones already presented by Bannerot et al.6).Given the extremely large enrollments (around 800 students take Capstone Design everysemester
