together.Once students arrived at a topic, they were then asked to perform a literature search and identifyrelevant prior work. In particular, they were asked to determine whether their research questionhad already been answered (and, if so, how conclusively). They were also asked to identify themost relevant reference material from the prior work that is most closely related to their area ofresearch.Once the topic was refined through the literature search, student participants were asked todevelop a project plan, working with their faculty mentor. In most cases, these plans involvedthe development of a software system and its use for data collection to answer a researchquestion. A few relied upon existing systems and presented configuration and data

While there were likely a number of factors that contributed to those results,there was a notable trend in the associated qualitative feedback of students expressing apreference for courses where they could see a clear connection between the course material andthe real-world of engineering practice. For example, one student commented that “I wasgenerally interested in the subject upon arrival; however, I found many of the early requiredcourses
