The first year team was primarily concerned with making an entry. Subsequentteams built upon the knowledge, experience and challenges encountered by the previous team(s).The project’s main sponsor is Iowa Energy Center (IEC), a non-profit state organization whichinvests its resources to

Then,the scary creature looks around, ostensibly, seeking out the victim. Suddenly, he raises his armin a threatening manner. Then, his demeanor changes and he waves. Simultaneously, thesnowman speaks! He cheerfully greets his audience, transforming at once into a lovable friend.A complete flowchart of the scope of the project is given in Figure 1.

It is done through two basic laws ofinteraction of parts, which are, for example, “cause” or “not cause”. However, in a “cause” case,we need to inform if the action of a given concept Ci is in direction of strengthening orweakening the other(s) concept(s) C j .To construct a CM, the opinions of several specialists about a pair of concepts could becombined through a process called a vote procedure (the most voted opinion wins), what is donewhen we use a questionnaire.

If successful, this approach can then be used for integrat-ing BME into other engineering disciplines within a college of engineering, which may thenserve as the foundation of an interdepartmental undergraduate BME degree program. 3. Implementation The proposed prototype includes eight experiments to be incorporated into the ECE corecurriculum, along with a new technical elective with its own project(s) to achieve the abovestated goals and objectives. Depending on the specific class, the experiments can take anywherefrom 1 week to 15 weeks. The experiments are designed to be increasingly complex and
