juniors).BME 201 – Second-semester sophomores work on four-student, sophomore-only teams on asingle-semester design problem. One intent is to instill in them the confidence to complete thedesign process without upper-class mentors.BME 300 – First-semester juniors have the opportunity to teach the sophomores something theyhave learned — the design process. They also serve as big brothers/sisters advising the youngerstudents on curriculum issues. This develops a spirit in the students of being part of a group thatis bigger than their own class.BME 301 – Second-semester juniors start a design project that is chosen by the faculty to bedifficult enough that it cannot be completed in one semester. Goals are to do a pilot study thatleads to product

In an effort to address this question, a modelwas created. The objective was to determine whether or not it is possible to develop integrativeengineering curriculum within the scope of middle school students. Due to its versatileapplication, the mechanical engineering field was chosen. This model is perhaps a greaterextension of a Pre-Engineering
