Design in Engineering Education

, Page 11.306.2engineering design is held responsible for the impact it has on life-cycle issues such as costs,usability, safety, manufacturability, serviceability, recyclability, sustainability, disposability, andquality; ultimately, determining the success or failure of products and organizations. Indeed,design is considered an issue of national importance2. Good design practices can be observed,but how can the expertise and methodologies employed be captured, transferred, implemented,formalized or improved? Why are some people more likely to be good designers? These are justsome of the questions that researchers and practitioners have sought to answer.In engineering education, students (undergraduate and graduate) are often involved

. The principal reasons for initiating this major change were to:i) allow additional time for students to become engaged in more hands-on activities during theworkshop period, ii) create teaching opportunities for graduate students, iii) give students theopportunity to present and to become aware of contemporary engineering issues, and iv)collect/analyze data for conducting engineering education research as part of the DLR projectactivities.

Theconcurrence of these forces has propelled us towards biology as a new frontier for engineeringeducation.To meet this need, the authors, faculty in the UW College of Engineering who are experts inbiology together with educational researchers from the UW Center for Engineering Learning andTeaching are developing a series of new courses and smaller curriculum modules

. We surveyed students and employers to understand where the gap exists between newgraduates and highly qualified engineers. New graduates frequently struggled at attaining thebest internships. Even before they graduated, many of them started to seek out opportunities butoften in vain. Furthermore, most new hires had to go through a season of training before theycould become contributing employees. As a result, we wanted to design a course that would helpus address the research question: “How can we deliver an engineering education that providesstudents the skills they need to succeed in the workforce?”By genuinely listening, we discovered a number of key insights which led to a highly successfulcourse where students rapidly design hardware
