CAMP students would lead projects for national competitions.A key philosophy of manufacturing and design education at the School of Mines has been to putin place industrial equipment and software and to use it much as it would be used in industry.7Modern design methodology is used on all projects. Full engineering models are developed forall competition vehicles and commercial industrial software packages are used for analysis andmanufacturing. Solidworks is typically used to develop the models. Algor is used for finiteelement analysis of solids and Fluent is used for fluids. Mastercam is used to develop the CNCmachine code. Working Model 3D is used for dynamic analysis. The Advanced ManufacturingLab has a FADAL VMC 40 vertical machining

However, learning the simulation software is as hard, if not harder, aslearning the concepts in transportation engineering itself. An intuitive interface between thesimulation software and the students is needed. Customized developed games can be a goodinterface to show the students enough but not too much information with pleasant learningexperience.Our Lab has been actively developing transportation education games.
