For the nursing students, with practical training andexperience in various hospital environments including some ER, this provided an opportunity tovalue observation of details and articulate the need for a functional ER room to the engineers.Extra credit was given for features that addressed COVID-19.1. Value of collaborative projectsThe benefits of collaborative multidisciplinary projects are well known. They enhance theability of students to communicate across disciplinary lines. Students may also learn how tolisten to a customer and develop ideas based on incomplete information. Typicallymultidisciplinary projects involve students from different fields of engineering.

ExperiencesAuthenticity [1] is a goal for many instructors when developing design experiences for first yearengineering students. Some of the perception of authenticity comes through the clients, eitherreal or imagined, with real clients having an understandable advantage in this perception. For thisreason, many institutions pull in industry partners looking to solve real world problems.However, for smaller classes of first year students, it can be difficult to draw in industry partners.In such cases, instructors may instead look to service learning opportunities [2], partnering withlocal community members as clients. In this paper, the author discusses one such partnership andtakes a five-year retrospective look at the projects and the process used from the

Since the Six Sigma process is also used in the development of finalproducts in manufacturing, it is anticipated that other researchers and academicians will benefitfrom the lessons learned in creating this training product.OverviewOnce the need for the modular Six Sigma Green Belt (SSGB) course was determined, the DMAICprocess most often used for Six Sigma projects was deployed. Tollgates to move from one phase ofthe process to another were utilized in managing the project. This process helped ensure that aneed to backtrack did not occur.

applied and leveraged to enhance the capstone experience thatentails industry sponsored design and build style projects. The ability to comfortably interactwith professionals in an industrial environment, manage projects entailing interactions withother portions of the business outside of engineering such as purchasing, skilled trades,marketing, sales and others allows a wide variety of challenging projects to be considered for thecapstone design course. Frequently capstone projects are proposed by companies that currentlyhave one or more co-op students. If appropriate, the co-op student acts as the point of contactbetween the student team and the industry sponsor. This minimizes the amount ofmiscommunication and also allows faster turn-around
