One such ad-vancement is topology optimization (TO) which generates optimal designs to meet specific prod-uct specifications. TO is rapidly being adopted by the industry as many commercial computer-aided-design (CAD) platforms now provide in-built modules for TO. This necessitates training ofengineering workforce.In this paper, we discuss the results of a study carried out to quantify the impact of introducingTO to junior undergraduate mechanical engineering

. IntroductionIn Fall 2002, the authors were involved in teaching “Theoretical Concepts”, a Computer Science(CS) foundation course at junior level. Theoretical Concepts or Theoretical Computer Science(TCS) forms the very basics of the present day CS undergraduate and graduate studies andpractical research. The curriculum is designed to broaden students'perspectives on the role of CSand Mathematics in the modern world, while equipping them with both quantitative andcomputer literacy skills. Mathematics plays an important role in the understanding of howcomputers work, and how they operate. It is to say without any doubt that the basicunderstanding of the mathematics of computers is necessary for any computer scientist.The study of TCS involves grasping the

However, building such a lab is usually achallenge. It requires costly equipment and flexible configurations that are often not compatiblewith the campus network. In this paper, we describe how we designed a network teaching labbased on virtual machines connected on a virtual network. An instructor can create a virtualnetwork and make it available to students. Students can configure the network and runexperiments as instructed. When the task is complete, the students can submit the result of
House”night, when the cars were actually raced in front of other students and faculty, provided additional motivationfor success. The students pushed each other to create designs that were “the best” and not simply “goodenough to get by.” One student’s assessment of the course was that “...it really validated my education. [Thecourse] proved that I actually did learn something after studying EE for five semesters!” The negative student feedback was limited to the concern by some students that the project was tootime consuming. One group of students worked an excessive amount of time on their project. The underlyingcause was over-design. Even in this case, the students acknowledged that they learned the real-world dangerof over-thinking a
