MET students to develop Excel solvers, CSET student to code and develop the GUI interface, and CET student to manage the overall project. Visual Studios was planned for GUI programming. The initial proposed programming strategy is shown in Figure 1.

The proposedresearch question was studied in senior-level undergraduate elective course (CE 423: TrafficOperations) taken by students that wish to learn more about the engineering skills and techniquesrequired to practice traffic engineering. Content includes implementation and design of trafficcontrol devices, design of signal phase and timing plans, and analysis of signalized intersectionoperations. The course is offered in one section every fall (approx. 30 students) and was split intotwo components: lectures and a lab. The lecture sessions covered material from
