The emphasis upon “Agility” in engineering andsoftware development was signaled by the Agile Manifesto in 2001. Seventeen industry softwareengineers declared a change in the software development process. Thomas, one of the group ofseventeen, became a noted Ruby on Rails evangelist and publisher8. Rails invites agility. Agilesoftware development, unlike the rigid, sequential “waterfall” model for software development,consists of development methods based on incremental and iterative steps. In agile development,project requirements and solutions evolve through collaboration between cross-functional teams.It facilitates adaptive planning, development

We developed and offered the course toboth business and engineering students. Here, we present the need for teaching frugal engineering in anengineering curriculum. Value Methodology or Value Engineering, along with Quality Engineering, arekey components of frugal engineering. “Wicked” problems and their challenges are also presented inthis course, along with wicked problem-solving strategies. While the concepts behind Value Engineeringwere developed in the 1940s and frequently applied in industrial, manufacturing, construction, anddefense projects, they are rarely

In the fall semester students build, test, and present at an exposition an Arduino-basedgame. While students are provided the design for the game, they are strongly encouraged tomake creative modifications. Following this, students complete a reverse engineering activity ona simple household appliance or medical device. The result is a CAD model of the device and adetailed report, typically of about 40 – 50 pages. Students work in teams of three or four on bothprojects.In the spring semester work consists of a
