freshman year, thenthe design serves the dual purpose of integrating the math and science into the engineering curriculum.Engineering design rarely focuses on one discipline, but is rather a combination of mechanical, electrical,industrial, etc. engineering. A key fictor when introducing design at the freshman level is to include theserealistic situations and illustrate the inter-disciplinary nature of design from the beginning. Additionally, theformat of design must be considered from both instructor presentation and student deliverables. Oral, graphicaland written communication are important in conveying design; therefore, instruction in all areas should beincluded in the course. While having a design described entirely on paper is possible

Specifically, contemporary academic literature supports the use ofindustry sponsorship of senior design projects, also known as “capstone” projects (Smith, 2009).Industry sponsorship can take many forms, but most of the time this primarily entails industrymembers working with and/or reviewing the work of the students (O’Brien et.al., 2003).
