The purpose of the course is to: 1) provide students with access to a faculty mentorthat can provide automotive engineering expertise, 2) compensate students participating on theteam with GPA hours, and 3) motivate students to participate on a competition team early intheir academic career. Throughout the semester, students are educated on common design,analysis, and testing procedures used to build the Baja SAE car. In addition, connectionsbetween the theory and homework assignments students are currently completing in their courses(e.g., Statics, Solid Mechanics, Instrumentation, Dynamics, and Machine Design) and thephysical application of the material in a hands-on project are made. Presently, the integration ofthis course into

On the other hand, we havesimulation tools like Ansys Discovery, Ansys Mechanical, and Ansys Fluent which are used todesign parts and assess whether they can withstand the forces, fluid flows, thermal environments,etc. that they will experience during their lifetime. Often when students focus on the simulationaspects, they overlook the breath of materials at their disposal and resort to using standard materialssuch as general structural steels for their designs.We at Ansys look to support educators teaching both materials and design.

Several different UAS platforms with different sizesand configurations were provided to students and they were asked to create a dynamic model forthe UASs.

If the hands-on experience is gained in the process of completing a team project, thebenefits are even more valuable [3] – [5]. Although not all undergraduate engineering courseslend themselves to hands-on projects, some are especially suited for the task. The plethora ofphysical devices and systems discussed in instrumentation and measurement courses certainlyprovide basis for many suitable projects. The work presented here involves the design,development, and testing of an accelerometer by students in a third-year mechanical engineeringinstrumentation and

collaborative learning.IntroductionThe use and effectiveness of immersive environments for learning has been increasinglyresearched and examined. Current research shows that immersive environments such as VirtualReality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are among the most promising mediums to supportlearning. These technologies provide computer-generated simulations of the real or an imaginedworld that can serve as a rich and engaging context for learning [1]. Two features of thesetechnologies, “immersion” and “interactivity”, bring new dimensions to how people learnindividually and collaboratively. Bryson describes immersion as the sense that the “user’s pointview or some parts of the user’s body is contained within the computer generated-model” [2

Here we study students in two of these early required courses: calculus-basedintroductory physics, and the fundamentals of programming.
