One struggle students have had in the capstone course was an inability to handle large, team-based projects, despite having the technical knowledge to solve the problem. The hope was that, with an earlier introduction to these skills, and connecting earlier on with students who possess leadership skills like those coming from the military, students would be more comfortable in the

Such a course accomplishes theABET’s objective of having a capstone course in the curriculum. The paper also discusses thehorizontals leaning that takes place among students along with providing the students theenvironment where they could practice the designing of a complex system.
