These courses have aproject component that allows participants to use the course content in an application thatis relevant to their work. The development and implementation of university/industrydesigned courses have been especially successful for experimental design and statisticalprocess control and analysis courses. Industrial projects with experimental work completed at a company site or at theUniversity are also an important part of learning and research opportunities for facultyand students. Academic/Industrial project partnerships leading to important learning andresearch opportunities are a critical component of Rowan Engineering

Most of the mechanical engineering students have very little research experienceby the time they graduate and even less so in engines, fuels and engine exhaust emissions.To address some of these problems an undergraduate research program was developed andimplemented in the mechanical engineering department. Initially, the program catered to a verysmall number of students seeking to work on research projects in the subject area. However, inthe last two years, the National Science Foundation has been funding the project under itsResearch Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The funding allows up to eightstudents from different institutions to work with the faculty and graduate students onexperimental and analytical projects in

Throughout thesemester, the students were given several demonstrations of mechatronic systems through the useof the project box and software.

In the Virtual Laboratory Project students do not interactwith real equipment to obtain data, but rather with computer simulations of laboratoryequipment, obscured by noise. This innovation was developed with the intent of complimentingphysical laboratory experiences by allowing future engineers to practice designing experiments,analyzing and interpreting data and making informed choices based on their analysis, skills theywill need in industry. The idea of using virtual laboratories to facilitate project based learning iscompelling since, once the software has been developed, the cost to transport a virtual laboratoryto a new institution is relatively small

Within a year of the reform, students taking courses as part of therevised curriculum were designing projects using the very latest available integrated circuits andsoftware. As student projects increased in sophistication, a growing need for state-of-the-artSurface Mount Technology (SMT) facilities and Printed Circuit Board (PCB) etchingcapabilities was recognized. To support these projects, an SMT facility with PCB etchingcapability was developed.
