4through senior years, exploring a series of robotic/mechatronic, sensor, and communicationsystems, Students combine electrical, computer, and mechanical engineering concepts withpractical applications. Then, at multiple points in the four-year program, Students work inindustry (a co-op assignment with an engineer's salary; a total of three co-ops is mandatory forgraduation) to apply their knowledge and build real work experience. Rather than focusing ondry theoretical topics separately, we teach engineering theory through an integrated and appliedapproach in system design, so Students learn how concepts work together - as they would in the"real world."Students also have team-oriented design experiences integrated throughout their curriculum

In this mode the student can ensure their algorithm will run in real time(i.e., the algorithm’s execution time is less than the sample period). In the implementation mode,the controller is deployed on the hardware system and experimental data is gathered. The RDSprovides the interface needed to operate the controller in these three modes.There has been an abundance of work in developing hardware control laboratories including, toname only a few, double tank system [1], inverted pendulum [2], inverted double pendulum[3,4], triple inverted pendulum [5], and ball and beam [6], ball and beam on a roller [7].However

As part of the course, all of the students weretaken on a one-day field trip to Mississippi State University, located approximately 20 milesaway in Starkville, MS. The students were given guided tours of three research facilities. Thefirst was the Aerospace Engineering wind tunnel laboratory. The tour included both a subsonicand supersonic wind tunnel. The students were shown a demonstration of drag in the subsonictunnel, including a demonstration of the effects of dimples on the drag for a sphere, a topic thatwas later discussed in more detail during the

Becoming moresociotechnically literate involves moving away from focusing on individual accountability andtowards being able to recognize systemic causality, rooted in a historical context.Beyond assigning responsibility for harm that has been caused by existing technologies, studentsare also asked to struggle with the idea of who they are responsible for when (if) they becomedesigners and engineers. With much of engineering still client-driven, institutions and people inpower choose the problems that are to be solved, often at the expense of the broader community;we need to teach students to ask: “for whom and by whom is engineering done?” (Riley, 2008, p.97).Across all three of these dimensions, it is important for
