encounter as engineers in the workforce. The students had to apply the knowledge learnedin their mechanical engineering experimentation, thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanicscourses towards solving engineering problems. The students also needed to learn how to worktogether as a team by combining their particular specialties. The students were often working ondifferent projects, each with a separate focus. However, successful completion of each individualproject, as well as successful development of the laboratory, was only possible by joint solution ofproblems relating to overlapping projects.

They had been working with such structures for many years. For this group ofstudents, the course material often presented ideal concepts, to which they compared theircompany. Often the comparisons were favorable or neutral. Formal job descriptions,organizational charts, design reviews, concurrent engineering, quality assurance methods,production planning, inventory control, preventative maintenance programs, and performancereviews were all accepted practice in their workplace.
