. DEVELOPING SKILLS IN PROJECT DEVELOPMENT ABSTRACT By Lucian P. Fabiano New Jersey Institute of Technology INTRODUCTION Today’ s competitive need to develop high quality products has redefined the development role of engineers and engineering technologists . Historically, they have been hired to manage their own technical work activities and have not been expected to take on responsibilities required for overall project success. Today, engineers and engineering technologists assume much broader responsibilities . Responsibility for achieving specific

Thepaper concludes with subjective feedback on the effectiveness of this design project andits implementation from both student and instructor feedback.The Freshman Design Course:Like many other engineering programs, our mechanical engineering program at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology attempts to include design experiences throughout thecurriculum. As part of this overall emphasis, a 2 credit course is currently offered duringthe spring quarter of the freshmen year. Its primary focus is to offer students their firstformalized introduction to the process and methods of design as applied in an engineeringcontext. A wide variety of design methods and team oriented experiences are included inthis
