They haveintegrated concurrent engineering principles throughout their curriculum. 10 The Departments ofChemical and Materials Engineering and Electrical Engineering at San Jose State Universityworked with science disciplines to develop an interdisciplinary course in semiconductorprocessing.

engineering students from systems, mechanical, electrical andcomputer engineering were assembled to tackle this project during the 2011-12 academic year.Each team was led by systems engineering students, who acted as the principal engineer and theproject manager, and mentored, by a systems engineering and an engineering managementprofessor. After evaluating various design alternatives, both teams came up with very innovativebottle recycler designs. Both teams were selected as finalists (top 9 out of 50 projects) in the BestSenior Design Project Competition. In this paper, we will present the educational approach howthese projects were conducted and assessed, and discuss the findings.Introduction “We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we

The faculty alsobelieves, as supported in the literature, that getting engineering students involved in hands-onprojects early in their academic career motivates students and aids in retention.

However it should be noted that while morerecent reports [3, 4] recognize an improvement of the performance of graduates in genericcompetencies, most still struggle to use theoretical knowledge in practice: "Although industry is generally satisfied with the current quality of graduate engineers it regards the ability to apply theoretical knowledge to

These modules are splitbetween mechanical/civil engineering and electrical/computer engineering. This paper mainlyfocuses on the structure of the mechanical/civil engineering module and the changesimplemented to that module over the recent years.The mechanical/civil module consists of three main components: computer aided design (CAD),machine shop, and a design project.
