”.In “Capstone” projects, some instructors may notice that students show a preference formachined parts in their designs. This may result from the ready availability of educationalmachine shops and familiarity with those manufacturing processes. Machined parts are oftenrelatively expensive in production and geometrically simple. In addition to their value in DFXeducation, problems like these may help students develop visualization skill with complex 3-Dparts and assemblies, or lead them to consider using additive manufacturing processes moreoften in design.GradingGood conceptual design practice calls for the generation of many alternative ideas, and someauthors believe criticism can discourage this activity. Certainly, students may be

A capstone project (senior thesis) provides the students with the opportunity to tackle areal world problem and work on an independent project for an entire year.

High school studentswho choose to follow engineering as a profession have good ACT and /or SAT scores in sciencesand mathematics.

For example, CEPC topicssuch as principles of sustainability, basic project management concepts, business, public policy,leadership, professional ethics, and professional licensure are frequently included in a seniorseminar or capstone design course [1]. Every civil engineering program has the discretion todetermine how it will meet the CEPC criteria, and embedding required curriculum topics in asingle course or several courses are two common methods. The following study investigateshow civil engineering programs are addressing the current ABET requirements in the 2023-24academic

In the spring of 2001, a very gifted group of studentsrequested to do a Design Studio redesigning one of the TSL experiments.

This current paper reports the continuation of theeffort made earlier and discusses the building of an equipment in-house for the “Impact of a Jet”experiment.Design and Construction of the Lab EquipmentThe equipment was designed, constructed, and tested in a senior design project undertaken bythree senior students Joseph Lonigro, John Hauver, and Allan Derrickson in spring 2017. Theyunderwent a complete design experience in the process. The design team researched existingdesigns, developed engineering design specifications, produced a project management plan,evaluated several concept

Therefore, it is recommended that instructors optimize XRtechnology for their courses.In this paper, the instructors implemented XR technology in senior-level capstone projectcourses. At the University of Connecticut, the project course spans two semesters. Students forma team with three to four students and work with a faculty advisor and an industry mentor tocomplete a professional capstone project. Students complete their proposal in the first semesterand develop their final deliverables during the second semester. Final deliverables include theproject outcome, alternatives, and a report and
subsystems.It is relatively easy for academic institutions that are starting a new mechanical engineeringundergraduate program to create a curriculum that includes a sequence of courses and learningexperiences to teach product design and development as well as fundamental concepts related toST and SE. Unfortunately, in the case of existing programs it can be difficult to make substantialmodifications to the curriculum. Under those circumstances, the only option is to work within theframework of the curriculum that is already in place. In this regard, most mechanical engineeringundergraduate programs have a capstone senior design experience, and many programs include acourse in which students learn about product design and development.

Recently, however the TIDEE collaborators shifted theirfocus from articulation between 2-year and 4-year programs to capstone course assessment7, asthe result of the 2002 survey of capstone design course instructors (conducted by the TIDEEconsortium of colleges in the Pacific Northwest) showed that many struggle with

In the early 1970s, CSRE published thenewsletter/magazine SPARK, which emphasized the role of engineering in its social andpolitical-economic context, including especially labor relations. 11 SPARK highlighted andcriticized a range of “oppressive” applications of engineering skills and technology, withparticular attention paid to the connections between engineering and military. Instead ofworking on military projects, SPARK’s editors encouraged engineers to employ their skillstoward progressive, liberatory ends. One of the editors’ major goals was to bring

In undergraduate engineering contexts, like capstone design projects, problemsare more complex and less constrained (Howe et al., 2017). Given the complexity of designcontexts compared to the more structured contexts found in the current shared mental modelliterature, it is not yet clear if the measurement techniques used in those studies are useful.Moreover, though we might expect the findings to carry over into the design context, it is notclear if results and findings related to shared mental models found in more structured problemsettings will have the same characteristics compared to a more complex problem-solvingenvironment.2.2 Engineering

It is welldocumented that effective teamwork can facilitate career progression, often leads to moreinnovative solutions, and has the potential to increase job satisfaction. Throughout theirundergraduate education, students are tasked with team-based projects to provide this requiredexperience, however they are rarely provided with the skills to be a successful team member andleader. Ambrose et al. [3] highlight that in addition to content knowledge, teamwork furtherrequires higher-order qualitative skills such as task delegation, conflict resolution, and contentsynthesis.

Students will arrive at a professor’s office to find thatprofessor missing or busy for an unknown reason and an unknown amount of time. Our designwill allow for a professor to display their whereabouts, thus alleviating the issue. The display mustbe readable and fit within the constraining area of their office window.

The CEE pro-gram includes a significant laboratory component and practical design projects in the upperlevel classes. The program culminates in a capstone design class that is taken in the last se-mester in school. Projects for this class are often solicited from communities and non-profitorganizations, and typically incorporate a service learning component.In reviewing the existing UWP CEE curriculum for this curriculum development project, itbecame clear that the curriculum had not changed significantly in over 20 years.
