industry- or client-sponsored project.History and Background—Why the Modules Were Designed and ImplementedBecause of the importance of the course EDSGN 100 as a cornerstone design course within theCollege of Engineering, the engineering design program continually innovates the curriculum inthis course. In the past, this has involved developing custom textbooks, new design projects, newmethods of teaching topics, and other changes. Faculty teaching the course at the largest campusmeet weekly to discuss the course as well as to share teaching innovations. Bi-annually, facultyteaching the course at all campuses meet during a larger meeting to provide updates on the courseand to share innovations. A need was identified to codify many of the
