Design in Engineering Education
AC 2010-1897: DESIGNING SUCCESSFUL DESIGN PROJECTSAlan Cheville, Oklahoma State University Page 15.371.1© American Society for Engineering Education, 2010 Designing Successful Design ProjectsAbstractThe importance of design is increasing in undergraduate engineering programs. Design is seenby proponents as a vital element of learning engineering. Compared to courses which focus onengineering analysis, design courses emphasize application of a broad spectrum of knowledge innarrow contexts. The importance of design courses is magnified by their impact on students andtheir disproportionate importance for assessment and accreditation. One element of designcourses
