Making reliability part ofthe design should also enhance the reliability of the final product, reducing downtime in the field,and increasing the time between failures.3.2 Design for Retirement The concept of product retirement is one that most consumers do not think about.

and active in solving these problems.I. IntroductionThe central issue in this paper is how to get students involved in large interdisciplinary projectsat an early stage. In the past three years, enrollment in aerospace engineering at the author’sinstitution has risen sharply. This rise appears to be related to the expectation that there will be awealth of Space-related opportunities, resulting from the Mars Exploration plan 1 and the “GoldRush to Low Earth Orbit” 2 seen in the late 1990s. The rigorous courses on fundamentalmathematics and science in the first two years of college afford little occasion to remember whyone wanted to enter engineering in the first place. In the 1990s, we tried to address thisdemoralizing aspect by setting up a

As Eyler points out, such opportunities provide students with “‘real world’challenge” [5, p. 41], and through workplace experiences students often come to see “therelevance of the curriculum to life in a complex organization” [5, p. 50]. Eyler (1993) morespecifically found that co-op students learned how to be “an expert on people and organizations”[5, p. 47], including how to be an effective member of their employing organization. It has alsobeen argued that internship or co-op programs are helpful for students’ professional growth [6].Based on their empirical study with business students, Bhattacharya and Neelam reported thatstudents developed greater confidence, negotiation skills, social sensitivity, and cross-culturalunderstanding
