Students were introducedto the design process, and faculty came into the class to talk about their research with twothoughts in mind. The first was to talk about the different kinds of engineers who work on thesame research projects and to identify the role of each major. The second was to address howthey use the design process in their research. Faculty interactions occurred both through labtours and through classroom presentations. The final project for the course was to incorporatethe design concepts discussed in class by designing a new technology that would help solve asmall and focused piece of a grand challenge of their choice.
