Assignment #2 (Purple Report) was a full operational plan including the material requirements plan, where the students had to scale up from 1 batch of cookies to approximately 1200+/-300 per day and determine their production method. They had to research suppliers for ingredients and determine order quantities and how to store them. Further, they had to investigate equipment from mixers to scoops and one even

-based engineering curriculum at the USMA isredundancy—the loss of lesson periods due to review of fundamental concepts introduced in aprevious course. An advantage of integrating the curriculum is that students gain a betterunderstanding of basic principles without redundant lesson periods. In this integrated approach,basic principles that apply to all subjects within a track are introduced initially. The relevance ofthese basic principles is then reinforced as individual topics within the track are covered. Another disadvantage of the existing program is the myriad of textbooks adopted, most ofwhich are not from a textbook series. Since many courses inevitably adopt the distinct symbologyand format of the text, inexperienced engineering
