Theyear-long course is a mechanical engineering master’s-level sequence in which student teamswork on complex engineering projects sponsored by industry partners. Student teams completethe design process from defining design requirements to constructing functional prototypes thatare ready for consumer testing and technical evaluation.8 Students come to the course having earned undergraduate
universities have mostly evolved from medieval European models and are steepedin that tradition. The social changes of the Industrial Revolution have been followed by rapidacceleration in science and technology, increased prosperity, greater political freedom, andchanges in social values, especially over the last decade. These changes have been magnifiedin the university environment as challenges to the traditional model of university education Page 10.1066.2have forced an abandonment of the ivory tower in favor of programming that producesthoughtful and socially responsible practitioners. “Proceedings of the 2005 American Society for Engineering

-sea exploration resulted in poor ethical standards. The Titan alsoserves as a modern parallel to the ship it was intent on exploring; the Titanic notoriously sankdue to an iceberg, as the ship had been poorly tested in rough conditions. In the growing age ofextreme adventures, OceanGate's lack of proper testing and overconfidence in its engineeringresulted in a culture that was socially responsive to meet demand but lacking in socialresponsibility. Ethical standards must be established and enforced for start-ups who push theenvelope in extreme environments to foster a spirit that emphasizes discovery while prioritizingsafety. Additionally, countries must collaborate to ensure basic, proper regulations can beenforced in international spaces
futureengineering professionals. The research has shown that data-driven research experiencescontribute to both academic growth and the development of lifelong learning skills.Linn et al. (2015) [2] emphasize the transformative impact of undergraduate research onstudents’ career trajectories and academic growth. They argue that these experiences createopportunities for students to engage with real-world challenges, build collaborative skills, anddevelop an appreciation for the research process.Maybee et al (2015) [3] discussed the integration of data informed learning within disciplinarycontexts. By building upon students' prior experiences and aligning data usage with subject-specific learning, the framework fosters both academic development and the

Boards represent sub-systems, while multi-boardconfigurations can represent complete systems, and involve hardware fabrication, assembly, andintegration with application, control and diagnostic software. Clearly, the RASSP program is ofstrategic importance to industrial and military competitiveness [6].RASSP promotes a new design methodology for digital systems prototyping that differs fromcurrent design practice as taught in our universities and practiced in the past. Figure 1 representsa high-level depiction of current design practice (circa 1993) for large embedded systems with adata processing section and

Despite steps taken to remedy the situation, through greater industry-academia collaboration; both design faculty and design practitioners argue that furtherimprovements are necessary. Design faculty across the country and across a range of educationalinstitutions still feel that the leaders of engineering schools (deans, department heads, tenuredfaculty) are unable or unwilling to recognize the intellectual complexities and resources neededto support good design education.Fortunately, more and more educators are becoming aware of the issues of design, and steps arebeing taken world wide, to
