engineering curriculum has long been recognized.However, students often do not complete a hands-on, comprehensive design project until theirsenior year capstone design course. While this is obviously a very valuable and appropriatelearning experience, students benefit from and desire earlier and more frequent real-world designexperiences12. One reason design experiences are often delayed is that students do not have thetechnical breadth early in their academic careers necessary to complete a comprehensive designproject. While students in the first-year course, Fundamentals of ECE, do not have the breadthand depth to successfully carry out a completely open-ended design project with a level ofsophistication expected from senior students, they do have

To facilitate adoption by other institutions, flexibility is a key objective of theintended guidelines. Since the appropriateness of using the name engineering in the context of aminor is subject to debate, the specific name of minor should be part of that flexibility.
