Until recently a course of this nature was specified byABET. While ABET current rules are less proscriptive, there is general agreementamong Chemical Engineering programs that senior design continues to be an importantand required course. The common goals of this course are for students to realize the Page 13.661.2design of a chemical facility

Considering that this is the first engineering laboratoryin the curriculum, several authors5,6 have emphasized that these „first‟ laboratory experiencesmust generate enthusiasm, moving away from the traditional laboratory designed as „foodrecipe‟. The idea of an „open ended hypothesis‟ laboratory experience can allow the student

The end result beinga foundational guide for library instruction of engineering standards literacy.Student Standard UsePrior to their final year of coursework, engineering students have little to no knowledge ofengineering standards.

An instrumentation amplifier circuit board kit was availablefor the students to integrate into their design. The project provided a very good means ofunifying many aspects of the course. The fabrication experience gained through this project isalso a valuable component of the mechanical engineering curriculum.

There were three areas of concern that couldpotentially affect the integrity of the member. The first one was the compressive force of thespring acting upwards on the center of the support. The second area of concern was due to lateralforces that may be put on the support due to turning or any shift from side to side that is mayencounter.
