Apart from disciplinary courses emphasizing design, students from both programsare required to take a two course sequence in their senior year: the Senior Seminar (two semester-credits) and the Senior Design Project (three semester-credits). In the Senior Seminar coursestudents are introduced to some general design ideation concepts like brainstorming, brainwriting,collaborative sketching, morphological analysis, transformational design using mind-mapping,design by analogy, TRIZ, and the S-field theory.

. away in 15 weeks.Although much research has been conducted regarding workplace problems, howstudents experience workplace problem solving is still largely unknown. Since studentsare expected to be problem-solvers within the engineering workplace after graduation, itis important that they understand the nature of those problems that they will encounterand the specific challenges they are going to face in the real world.Not many researchers have investigated students’ perceptions of engineering workplaceproblem solving. Some of the existing studies we have found suggest that students mightnot have a good understanding of engineering workplace.

While the concept behind the structure was originally developed at theUniversity of Pittsburgh at Johnstown 1, the current laboratory procedure has expanded theconcept by simplifying the structure, adding in an inexpensive adjustable vibration source thatallows for the exploration of multiple modes, and expanding the mounting possibilities of theaccelerometer(s).In conducting this lab, students gain experience with the mounting and use of accelerometers,learn about
