engineering examples.Some multiphysics analyses are also investigated in the latter class by coupling different types ofanalysis to tackle challenging engineering problems. Students learn how to work on amultiphysics design project in a team through offline meetings, synchronous, and asynchronouscommunication tools (i.e., Slack and Blackboard). The following sections describe generativedesign and shape optimization techniques, with examples of student projects which increasedstudents’ skills in upper level core/elective courses, such as capstone design courses orCAD/CAM and aid in preparing more competitive students for future industry and careerengineering practice.Generative Design Generative design, available in Autodesk Fusion 360, is a novel

handling. When youphotocopy a page from your text (almost all books are copyrighted), are you breaking thelaw? Generally the question arises, what to do and what not to do under differentcircumstances. What is legal and what is ethical? In this paper, the role of professionalethics in teaching engineering design is discussed. The material presented here is part oftopics which are taught in a two course sequence of Mechanical Systems Design at NJITand is considered in detail in my forthcoming book [1] titled, ”Mechanical Design:Fundamentals to Capstone “ being published soon by NJIT.Engineers are responsible to build things, make them perform better, create solutions toproblems facing the society and also train other engineers. Engineers have
innovations,such as capstone, hackathon, or studio projects, are encouraged in the course to pursue societallysignificant applications of their innovations.ENT330 consists of three modules that are similar to those of a traditional entrepreneurshipcourse: opportunity discovery, risk reduction, and strategy evaluation. However, thecorresponding activities (Table 1, left) are conducted in the context of the SBIR program (Table1, right). Students’ major work product is an SBIR proposal. Students are not required tosubmit their proposals, as this has legal prerequisites including the formation and registration ofa for-profit entity, and post-award requirements including the availability of students to conductthe funded work, to which students might not
, video, an assessment of learning outcomes for that learning object, and an assessmentof the learning object itself unless otherwise noted. Each section also included a generaldiscussion forum. Since the development and implementation of the learning objects was theprimary vehicle to achieve the objectives of this online professional development program,the primary assessment focused on the quality and usefulness of the learning objects. Whilethe teachers found overall that the learning objects were providing the information needed tosuccessfully progress through the online program, they made useful comments that wereincorporated in the revisions of the learning objects.The last section of the program, Capstone Project, is particularly

doable through problem-based learning that occurs in an interactivelearning environment. Boundary crossing is an important aspect in engineering pedagogy inorder the development of inter-, multi- and cross-disciplinary competence in engineeringstudents as they prepare to be productive in the 4IR workforce.We investigated the merits of developing cross-disciplinary competence in a capstone course onland development of a 4-yr university engineering technology program. Students were tasked topropose a subdivision design of an 80-acre site located in a rural community. The cross-disciplinary project involved design thinking, established in engineering literacy, creativethinking to include diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) principles in land
