engineering training with an emphasis on engineeringdesign, systems thinking, and sustainability. Our goal is to train this engineering versatilist. Webelieve that exposure to engineering design can help students develop their problem solvingskills, teach them to better synthesize information, and exercise skills required to integrate andanalyze knowledge. Consequently, courses in engineering design represent the spine (boldedcourses with a white background in Figure 1) of our integrated engineering curriculum.2Students are first exposed to engineering design during their freshman year with reverseengineering modules in our Introduction to Engineering course. Then, sophomore through senioryear, students enroll sequentially in our six-course design

The capstone design experience is 4.8 hourson average if there are design courses throughout the curriculum but 5.7 hours if there are onlydesign projects sprinkled through the curriculum. The survey question did not distinguishbetween semester and quarter credit hours, but 93% of the responding institutions are on thesemester system.Either the capstone design series or single course may be offered once per year or multiple terms.At 78% of the institutions, the capstone design course or courses are offered only once

While some institutions preferstandalone ethics classes, some of them integrate engineering ethics in curriculums byintegrating ethics within technical and nontechnical courses [4]. Relevant to the present work,engineering design courses have become one of the settings in which engineering ethics adapted.Engineering education is based on two components: material knowledge and process knowledge[5]. To learn how to design in engineering, students should develop both materials and processesto prepare themselves for experiences outside the classroom.

that provide a significant design experience. While most engineering programs around theworld introduce design at distinct points in a curriculum, such as freshman and capstone design courses,we present the concept of a “4-D” design pedagogy, where design is integrated across courses, semesters,years, and extra-curricular activities. This pedagogy, or framework, may be implemented in whole or inpart in any engineering program.Building on this design pedagogy, we present the context of designiettes in terms of educational theories,the I-Engineering, and assessment. We then explore the strategic development and use of designiettes,and present a literature review on small scale design project efforts as they relate to the concept ofdesigniettes

More manufacturing engineering andmanufacturing technology programs alike have courses in lean manufacturing and six-sigmaquality management as a result. However, the actual impact of these efforts can be realized onlywhen an academic unit’s “product” (students) can deliver it at the workplace. In order to build apositive student learning in the 21st century world, one needs to follow different and moreinnovative and active learning approach in the classroom.

Moreover, the learning in capstonedesign is not only related to discipline-based skills and knowledge, but something greater: theapplication and integration of that knowledge into the solution of a new problem, sometimes aspart of a team. This represents the sort of experience students will have as engineers once theygraduate and go on to work. Indeed, capstone design projects have evolved to prepare studentsfor “design and practice” as a supplement to core curriculum focused on “theory and research”[4], and capstone is some students’ first significant
