The elements emphasized andadopted to promote project evaluation practices include periodic review of journal/log bookentries, presentations, periodic milestone reports, at least weekly meetings with the advisor(s),and the final design report.IntroductionDue to its culminating nature, the senior design project course is probably the most significantexperience of the undergraduate engineering students (1). In the process the students apply whatthey have learned in their undergraduate course work; develop their communication,interpersonal, project management, and design skills; and learn about the product developmentprocess.

experience both the frustration and satisfactionof that experience. Such learning prepares them for professional practice in ways that a projectrequiring only a paper/computer design does not. For instance, students in the lower end designteam, while having some background due from their coursework, became much more proficientand confident in their understanding of design and machining. Students designed, programmed,setup, machined, and inspected complex CNC parts. They assembled the parts into a completemachine and successfully tested it. They were able to adapt their engineering skill sets to theproject at hand. This was a lifelong-learning experience the student will not soon forget.Bibliography 1 Sheppard, S., Macatangay, K., Colby, A., &

“Building Informed Designers” project is to incorporate engineeringdesign into existing high school science courses with minimal expense to improve designthinking and problem solving by all high school students. A secondary goal is to increase thenumber of students who will pursue college or community college engineering career pathways.Problem solving and thus problem framing are a key first step of the engineering design process.Davis, Beyerlin, & Davis [3] describes the role of a problem solver as one in which she“examines the problem setting to understand critical issues, assumptions, limitations, andsolution requirements.” Problem solving has been studied and found to be critical in design anddecision making [4-8].

Since FIT’s senior design course is three semesters long, a team of junior or sophomore has been proposed with the understanding that the same team or members of the team keep continuing on the project during their capstone senior design project course. Whereas, team at FAMU-FSU College of Engineering will help them to provide the initial senior experience that includes project planning and management concepts learned in their Engineering Design Methods course for the initiation of the project.

, and Fila, Hess, Purzer, and Dringenberg[20] examined how students develop and utilize their empathy towards users during a design taskwithout direct interaction with users. Furthermore, Beckman and Barry [21] discussed students’empathy in problem framing. They explained that at the first stage of the design process,empathizing with the students allows them to interpret a problem situation with users’perspectives. It implies that empathy is essential in framing and reframing processes.In consideration of the importance of engineering students’ framing and reframing processes andempathic design abilities, there have been critical work surrounding their problem-framing andempathy. However, there is still a gap in understanding of engineering

to your professional development/readiness? Both technical and non-technical aspects. MTRE 4800 introduces the engineering design workflow, from concept to prototype. Often, this can be just as or even more important than the design itself in the real world. A systematic workflow helps to ensure that standards of safety are being followed, and that all parties involved clearly understand the requirements of the design and what will be needed to satisfy these requirements. Through the completion of a semester-long project, we learned the stages of the engineering design workflow, as well as the associated documentation, presentations, and reports that will be required of us in industry
