We developed and offered the course toboth business and engineering students. Here, we present the need for teaching frugal engineering in anengineering curriculum. Value Methodology or Value Engineering, along with Quality Engineering, arekey components of frugal engineering. “Wicked” problems and their challenges are also presented inthis course, along with wicked problem-solving strategies. While the concepts behind Value Engineeringwere developed in the 1940s and frequently applied in industrial, manufacturing, construction, anddefense projects, they are rarely

, hands-on components stimulate curiosity. This creates astimulating learning atmosphere that encourages in-depth exploration of the underlyingtechnological concepts and piques curiosity. When compared to more passive learning methods,experiment-centric pedagogy has been demonstrated to boost motivation, peer-learning, andretention [13]. Following a study on learners' experiences after exploration and experimentation,Connor et al. [14] emphasized that project-based pedagogy frequently contains implicit biasesthat limit learning, either in terms of the procedures followed or the expected results. This wouldresult in predictable outcomes that do not promote divergent thinking and creativity [14]. Thisleads to the authors providing evidence that

In this course,students develop a continuous improvement project, using the learned tools, within a realcompany that allows them to analyze the process and collaborate with workers. Nevertheless,due to this course only having four to five weeks available to work with the company, the actualimplementation of these tools is not performed completely, so the students don’t see the results.Recognizing these challenges, this paper explores an innovative use of virtual reality to simulatea manufacturing process and to implement Lean tools within a controlled

The processbegins with establishing a clear problem statement and study goals, leading to actionablerecommendations to support decision-making. Crucially, after model development, simulationstudies require debugging, verification, and validation. However, some students struggle todistinguish between these terms.Debugging entails meticulously examining a model for errors. This encompasses syntax issues aswell as semantic or logical errors that can lead to misleading output. Fortunately

As a result, the Industrial Engineering (IE)department adopted the ECP idea with a focus on implementing home-based hands-on activitiesfor two courses. Learning a specific idea can start at any point, but the ECP concept starts withthe presentation of an experiment to teach the students a theory. This greatly improves thestudent's ability to retain the taught theoretical topic. The ECP concept is based on the MobileStudio project designed by the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to boost students' interest andsuccess in electrical engineering [3].
