teams that evolve by student self-selection processes over time that most often provide these benefits, while success in assignedteams may not be as prevalent. Thus, educators may benefit from observing and examining theinformal, self-assembled working teams students create in order to modify the way theyorganize, assign, diagnose, and support more formal project teams within courses and classroom.ACKNOWLEDGMENTSThe authors would like to gratefully acknowledge the National Science Foundation for theirsupport of this work under the REESE program (grant numbers DRL-0909817, 0910143,0909659, 0909900, and 0909850).

program can have a majorexperience both on design and research, under this context, in their fifth year they have project-based courses with the proposal, execution and reporting phases being nominally divided up intothe two semesters. A member of the ME faculty is assigned as advisor and often the projectresults in a bachelor thesis, several of this projects have also resulted in journal publicationsand/or patent applications. We are strongly promoting this option, since it greatly benefits thestudents and allows us to detect talents to pursue graduate studies.Accreditation: Engineering programs accreditation agencies in Mexico started in the middle1990´s. Our ME program was accredited by the Mexican Council CACEI in 2007 and re-accredited in

In addition,students should be able to print their own design using standard or alternative plastic materials withspecific attributes such as flexibility, transparency, electrical conductivity or any other material thatis compatible with the printer. Of utmost importance, this model has to be able to be escalated to acampus-wide system to allow access to the entire student body.IntroductionThe earliest 3D printing technology was developed in the late 1980’s and was referred to as rapidprototyping technology. The idea of rapid prototyping came to be from the need for quicker andcost-efficient design testing for product development within the manufacturing industry. It wasn’tuntil 2009
