Course web sites give studentsaccess to supplemental learning materials1, an ability to dialog with other students and faculty onforums2, and even tutorial movies ranging from working through homework problems to usingmodeling or computational programs related to the course3. In addition, there has been a flood ofinterest in and funding of engineering education research.

A collection ofmechanical, electrical, and software components can be designed or purchased ahead oftime independent of a particular project’s needs. These components can then be drawnupon to rapidly develop complex systems. In addition, knowledge and design decisionsspecific to one particular engineering discipline can be encapsulated in a modularcomponent, allowing the entire design team to address the issues related to componentintegration.We have applied this component-oriented design approach to the multidisciplinarydesign of autonomous mobile robots.

For example, a goal of an Engineering Statistics course can be described as: “ Equip the student with skills in probability and statistics so that they are prepared to apply these skills in civil engineering coursework and build upon these skills through further study in probability and statistics.” • Course objectives – more specific than goals and address achievable, measurable skills, knowledge, and attitudes that students will need to acquire.
