was visited by ABET in 2005 and accredited in the followingyear in 2006. The year 2005 also saw the launch of two new options, i.e., Electrical andMechanical Systems options. Telecommunications option was suspended in 2013 due to lowenrolment; thus, currently the program offers concentration options in Electrical, Mechanical,and Computer systems.The program curriculum includes the following components: a) a university core of 21 hours thatincludes humanities and social sciences; b) a 14 hour college core that includes additional mathand science; c) a 32 hour systems engineering core that includes courses in computerprogramming, circuits, probability and random signals, engineering economy, optimizationmethods, decision and risk analysis, DES

. Anexample from our course is available on request. Suggested project document structure is asfollows: 1. Overview of project with top level requirements and plans in terms of "shalls" and "wills" 2. Define required development phases and associated tasks and entry/exit criteria, e.g. a. Requirements analysis b. Analysis of alternatives c. Conceptual design d. Conceptual Design Review (CoDR) and documentation 3. Define demonstration requirements (as appropriate) - In our project, demonstration requirements are defined by fly off contest rules 4. Define demonstration or competition scoring (if appropriate) 5. Define project briefing and documentation evaluation

. A tradestudy is done on the designs to make decisions such as whether or not to use tank-like tracks inplace of wheels or a bucket ladder and hopper instead of one large scope. Based on the results ofthe trade studies, the students arrive at one general design.This general design must be completed by October 15th and presented to their advisors in apreliminary design review (PDR). At the PDR the students present the designs they consideredand how they arrived at their final design. In addition, they present a rough timeline for thecompletion of the robot. This timeline must include verifiable milestones. Often students willgenerate milestones such as “check on supplier for widget A” or “work on subsystem B”. Suchvague milestones are hard to
