The tool is beingused in the capstone design course sequence, and the results from three semesters ofimplementation are reported and briefly discussed. Compared to the previous method of peer-evaluation alone, the new tool allows each sub-outcome to be measured and evaluated.IntroductionMechanical engineering seniors at Lawrence Technological University (LTU) complete acapstone design project: either an SAE collegiate design series (CDS) competition or anindustry-sponsored project (ISP). These capstone projects serve as a summative assessment,bringing together machine design, thermo-fluids, manufacturing, and mechatronics topics into areal-world design experience. Relative coverage of these topics

thereality of the interdisciplinary nature of the workplace. This reality frequently extends beyondengineering disciplines and includes colleagues from other backgrounds ranging from projectmanagers, marketing and sales, to assemblers, machinists, and technicians. Often, they are alsorequired to follow a documented or prescribed process that may resemble an engineering designprocess. To better prepare students for both engineering practice and internships along the way,we developed a semester-long design project that is bound by many of these constraints. ThisWork in Progress paper describes the project goals and constraints, periodic checkpoints thatreinforce the engineering design process, assessment methods, and project motivations with
