technology becomesmore sophisticated 4, 5. They are widely used to perform design and engineering analysis basedon solid model data6. With such a design tool, the synthesis of mechanisms can be quickly andaccurately achieved using proper constraints provided by the software.The constraints utilized in this study include two different groups: geometric and dimensional.The geometric constraints include those of coincidence, parallelism, perpendicularity, andlocation in space; the dimensional constraints include both linear and angular dimensions. Witha constraint-based design tool, a designer can examine different situations quickly without theneed to manually rework the graphical construction. A large number of design revisions can bemade, because

Engineering Technology students do not have a good grasp of thisconcept and it is suggested that faculty have the responsibility to introduce and nurture costeffective design. It is the purpose of this paper to demonstrate one method of introducing thisconcept to Mechanical Engineering students in typical Strength of Materials courses. Rigiditywill be defined considering both the material and the shape of the cross section. Differentcombinations of material and shape will be evaluated. A simple decision matrix will be shown asone method of comparison and the entire concept will be pulled together. This concept should beincorporated into a variety of other Engineering and Engineering Technology courses in order todemonstrate and reinforce its

The program was officially approvedin the spring of 2003 and course offerings were begun in the fall of the same year.
