costlyand time-consuming difficulties of traditional product development methods. This trend ofbreaking away from traditional approaches was initiated over a decade ago with the introductionof several concepts or logistics such as Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS), Computer-AidedDesign and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM), Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM), QualityFunction Deployment (QFD), and Just in Time (JIT). These concepts and others were rapidlythrust onto engineering firms by consultants, to assist them in designing and manufacturing high-quality products at lower costs and in time to meet market demands.Many researchers have been promoting the idea that some of these concepts could beincorporated and utilized within a CE environment.

To foster the gap between academia and industry,hands-on training in modern tools, and creating opportunities for students to align theirtheoretical knowledge with practical experience is important. Without these measures, studentsincur the risk of starting their careers without the skills needed to tackle the complex challengesthey will face.In response to this need the National Science Foundation (NSF), stepped in by launching acollaborative initiative of the Intelligent Edge Computing Systems (iEDGE) by establishing aResearch Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program during summer 2024.

It is concludedthat the capstone course, while worthy of a spot in the curriculum, is not an effective tool forassessing program outcomes. The 5 year history at SPSU strongly supports t his conclusion.Effective Outcomes Assessment:Educators by their very nature are skeptics. Having reviewed and graded hundreds uponhundreds of student papers, the words outcomes assessment are often interpreted as facultyevaluation regardless of what administrators or o thers may say. Unfortunately, faculty are oftencorrect in their assumption that outcomes assessment
