While theChemical Engineering and Civil and Environmental Engineering departments haveseparate capstone design courses, these departments also recognize Junior/Senior Clinicas a course that well reflects engineering practice. Consequently Junior/Senior Clinicfigures prominently in the assessment efforts of all four programs. As noted in theprevious section, the Junior/Senior Clinic final reports were included in the portfolios ofstudent work that were reviewed at the end of every year.

The objective is to try and reach a safe cruisingaltitude. The students imported a picture of a instrument panel for a plane onto the Front Paneland placed several LabVIEW objects over top of the original image to make the simulationdynamic.

Creswell13, describes case studies Page 15.182.6as follows: Case studies, in which the researcher explores in depth a program, an event, an activity, a process, or one or more individuals. The case(s) are bounded by time and activity, and researchers collect detailed information using a variety of data collection procedures over a sustained period of time (Stake, 1995).Elliot and Luke14, however, argue that case studies are not a method of inquiry but rather a toolfor data generation and interpretation that, most likely, cannot be generalized. In fact
