One potentialbenefit of this approach is that by the time students reach their senior year, they have a betterunderstanding of societal and global impacts than they would have if they were only exposed to aseminar class in their senior year.Program DevelopmentTwo components were developed to address the goals

Wehave found that many students favor projects that have social impacts or deal withfamiliar subject areas for which they have had some prior exposure. They prefer designproblems with few constraints and would rather approach design from a “clean sheet”perspective. It is often more difficult to motivate students to work on projects thatinvolve the application of existing technology to complex systems for which they mayhave had little or no prior background or exposure. And, it can be difficult to keepstudents motivated on projects for which the best approach to design is to use off-the-shelf hardware

Indeed,design is considered an issue of national importance2. Good design practices can be observed,but how can the expertise and methodologies employed be captured, transferred, implemented,formalized or improved? Why are some people more likely to be good designers? These are justsome of the questions that researchers and practitioners have sought to answer.In engineering education, students (undergraduate and graduate) are often involved
