students have the education to“understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, andsocietal context.” Many engineering programs use design projects as one means of addressingthis outcome. This paper describes UTC’s process of using freshman hands-on design projectsto address these outcomes. Of special interest is the impact of student projects that address needsof children with disabilities.IntroductionThe Engineering program at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) recentlyredesigned its freshman introduction to engineering design course (IED) to use Project–BasedLearning (PBL) to excite students to independently learn, to create an environment for peerlearning, and to increase student in-class and
