The ME Capstone Design Course utilizes the knowledge learned by the studentsin different courses for solving practical engineering problems, and prepare them for the realengineering job. A survey tool was developed in order to determine how successful theCapstone Design Course (ME470 and ME475) were in preparing the new graduatingengineers. The graduating students were asked to rate on a scale of 1 to 4, the impact theybelieve the Mechanical Engineering Capstone Design Project had in preparing them for someof the “Best Practices” expected from New Graduating Mechanical Engineers, by theindustry.

Theprimary goal of ISEE is to cultivate a diverse community of engineering education researcherswho can think and work across disciplines with the ultimate aim of improving the engineeringstudent experience. A secondary goal is to formulate principles and models for advancing thisscholarship community. To fulfill these goals, the ISEE team designed three year-long Instituteshosted by the University of Washington (2004), Stanford University (2005) and HowardUniversity (2006).
