We wish to expose our students to engineering problems that will help them relate thematerial taught in class with their own major. The primary enabling technology is statisticalprogramming with Python. The case studies are introduced as group assignments and aremotivated in class or discussion sessions. Students select their own groups and in the end of eachcase study, they do a peer-evaluation in order to assess the degree of in-group collaboration. Inthis way, students build valuable
