LPRDS – A Requirements-Driven team-Based Design of a 2kW Solar Energy System William D. Jemison and Christopher T. Nadovich Electrical & Computer Engineering Lafayette College, Easton, PA 18042AbstractThis paper will describe a capstone senior design course that features a team-based requirements-driven project. The project scope is selected such that thetechnical requirements are sufficiently complex to require a team-based solution.The project implementation is designed to force the students to consider realisticformal engineering requirements and specifications while offering significantopportunities for student leadership.

engineering experience.II. Electrical and Computer Engineering CurriculaThe curriculum in Electrical or Computer Engineering at most colleges and universities satisfiesABET accreditation requirements2, 7 by means of four-year programs that generally begin with aFirst-Year introductory design experience, followed by a thorough exposure to analyticalfundamentals, core courses in the engineering major, and finishing with a capstone designexperience in the last year. There are generally no requirements, either within accreditationguidelines or within institution-specific curricula, pointing to educational goals that address theworldwide nature of their engineering field, or the momentum of the trend toward globalization.At Lafayette College1, the program
