learning in these Senior Design Capstonecourses presents new problems for the instructor (Magill & Herden, 1995). It is nolonger possible to equate the process of education with the product (Barr & Tagg, 1995)and thus to assess learning by giving multiple-choice tests on content. Students wonderwhether they are learning anything that actually will serve them in the workplace. It iswell known that there is a need to document the successful nature and effectiveness ofoutcome assessment.Need and NecessityThe Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) mandate and require aSenior Design Capstone course as a part of the four-year Engineering or EngineeringTechnology curriculum.

With the low employment opportunity in the US manufacturingsector, more and more foreign students are going back home after graduating from USuniversities and bring with them the technical knowledge. Increasing trend for graduated foreignstudents seeking employment at home, increasing trend of domestic students avoiding scienceand technology careers, and the alarming rate of manufacturing outsourcing have urgedacademicians to reposition their engineering curriculum, specifically the manufacturingeducational programs.To fit into the current manufacturing scenario, many educators have suggested to: (i) maintainthe core scientific foundation to promote innovation and (ii) modify the current curriculum
