The following paper describes the integration of a Formula SAE (FSAE) teamproject into a junior-level mechanical engineering experimentation course; it represents one ofnine projects in this course.The first half of the course is divided into modules that, for all students, progressively address: 1)the measurement chain and laboratory best practices using pre-existing experiments, 2) sensordesign, selection, and calibration, 3) statistical data analysis and uncertainty limits, and 4)technical communication skills. The second half tasks student teams to propose, design, build,and carry out an original experiment to an engineering problem they perceive can

and university engineering curricula in the US have been following similartrajectories for some time. In the early 1900’s, engineering was treated more as a ‘trade’ at theuniversity level, and high schools encouraged vocational studies, including auto repair, woodshop, metalworking, cosmetology and other ‘trades’ to the non-college bound. Between 1935and 1965, most university engineering curriculum moved away from a trade-school curriculumto a more theoretical, mathematically-intensive one, delaying any hands-on design projects untilthe senior or ‘capstone’ design course 11.Similarly, the nation’s high schools tried to erase the division between the trades and the college-preparatory tracks to prepare anyone who might be inclined to attend a
