decreased during the semester because they had a group discussion about theimportance of diversity in teams. Working in diverse teams also increased the teamworkskills of students. However, there were some significant negative changes in the opinions ofstudents about including diversity in an engineering curriculum or teaching diversity byuniversity professors. Also, students did not have the motivation to combat racial bias whereit existed in teams.Fila and Purzer [24] investigated whether gender diversity adds the number of creativesolutions in design team projects. They found that gender-balanced teams did not have morecreativity for developing design proposals comparing to all-male teams. But, gender-balancedteams that found more possible

“pipelines,” “pathways,” or “ecosystems,” can be difficult to navigate because of the highlystructured, and potentially intimidating, curriculum. This can result in a net loss of students overtime, as students transfer out, the highly-structured requirements can be an insurmountablebarrier to transferring into engineering programs. Students who have more confidence in theirabilities are less likely to drop out of engineering majors and more likely to successfullycomplete their degree [44], [45]. While the tendency to drop out can and does affect all studentdemographics, it is known to disproportionately affect underrepresented minorities [46]-[48].

Such systemscan complement the use of backwards design [1], [2], a curriculum development strategyintended to improve student learning which is taking hold in engineering education. Increasingly,engineering instructors are working towards more clear identification of intended learningobjectives, alignment of curriculum, and adoption of transparent, informative, and feedback richassessment strategies.

Compared to other active learningpedagogies, PBL results in increased gains in self-regulated learning [11]. It also leads toimproved performance and long-term knowledge retention [12-15].In a recent American Society of Mechanical Engineering (ASME) survey, 55.5% of 1,404industry engineering supervisors rated practical experience (how devices are made/work) as

liberal-arts education provides unique opportunities [1] to integrateinterventions within the curriculum. Cognitive approaches such as design and innovative thinkingcan be integrated into the curriculum and can be implemented through active learning and humancentered design methodologies. We incorporated these methodologies into our curricula to preparestudents to address the ever changing and complex environmental challenges that affect society[2]. Traditional lecture-based learning does not provide adequate preparations for students toutilize their learning and apply their knowledge in various real-life scenarios outside of theclassroom.

The problems are chosen to require use of priorcoursework, but often students need to acquire new knowledge, or learn new tools, to solve them.Solutions are not obvious, and often first attempts will fail, or experiments are required to explore aspectsof the potential solution set [4], [7].Developing an original solution to a novel problem engages multiple learning modes not usually found ina lecture or even an experimental classroom, and requires knowledge and a mindset that may not be partof the prior curriculum. Typically, some of this knowledge gap is bridged with focused lectures on topicssuch as communication, teamwork and project planning and

Seal force is the integrity of the sealing quality of the rubber stoppers that cap thepharmaceutical drug vials. The usual process of testing it is by performing a compressive test. The entire prototypingwas accomplished in various phases. Project 2 was an independent undertaking that was conducted over a period of2 semesters during which the student-faculty team conceived and developed an idea for marketing a low-costmechanical testing equipment. The idea was to build a tensile, compressive tester using off the shelf component,keeping the selling price below $2500 per

executing the process (Atman et al., 2014). Crismondand Adams (2012) suggest that assessing design can be done through the use of design diariesand portfolios.Design courses are very often in the senior year of a curriculum, called capstone courses, andfrequently in the freshman year, called cornerstone courses (Atman et al., 2014). However,researchers have found that the single capstone and cornerstone model is insufficient. Rather,an integrated and sequential design approach is considered the best practice, where studentshave design experiences and opportunities throughout their engineering curriculum (Atman etal., 2014). This move toward an integrated model is largely based on emphasizing conceptionsof the engineering design process that focus

Thisintegration requires discipline experts to share technologies and knowledge beyond theirtraditional boundaries to design and create an artifact, thus resulting in a transdisciplinary designprocess.

Creativity or creative thinking has been largely absent or unsupported in the standardengineering curriculum, let alone research training programs, due to a number of factors,including faculty’s lack of knowledge of how to properly teach creativity and creative thinkingand how to integrate such teaching into the existing curriculum [5, 28-31].

IntroductionEngineering curriculum at the university level typically culminates in a senior design capstonecourse. The goal of the senior capstone design course is to challenge the students with an exampleof a real-world project, preparing them for industry. University curriculum used to focus heavilyon design and design challenges, typical of industry level engineering. Due to increasing systemcomplexity, engineering curriculums were prompted to add more science and mathematics classesto help students understand needed tools and methods.1 However, over time this produced studentswith a decreasing understanding of the practical applications of engineering and
