Students begin the semesterlearning how to use the software competently and then engage in a design project requiring thedevelopment of a manufacturing robot. Students were given approximately six weeks to workon the activity. Specifically, students were asked to mechanically design and model a “gripper”and accompanying robotic arm for a pneumatically activated robot. Students are expected toaccomplish this task using a solid modeling software package. They are given a theoreticalbackground or setting for the design requiring it to be implemented in an assembly line

that first year students did not have the capacity to comprehend engineering design beforecompleting the fundamental coursework of engineering. Now, as the engineering curriculum hasprogressed, first year design courses, known as the cornerstone engineering courses, have become staplecourses across engineering programs in the United States [1]. Similarly, fourth year design courses,referred to as capstone courses, have seen significant development over time through integration ofindustry-sponsored projects with real world applications into the coursework. However, these capstonecourses serve as the only standard opportunity across engineering education for undergraduateengineering students to showcase their engineering education. In

In brief, these spaces can bedescribed as follows:• Product Realization Lab (PRL) at Stanford University is a large and well-equipped makerspace, which is deeply integrated into the curriculum of engineering and design students in the form of project-centered classes. Students learn manufacturing and design skills in parallel by designing and building physical prototypes in a hands-on manner.• Hobby Shop at MIT is a space with a large wood shop and some other machines for university affiliates, focusing more on personal projects and
