IntroductionThe senior design project, which has become a popular addition to many engineering andengineering technology programs, provides a number of challenges for both the student andfaculty supervisor. These challenges include selecting an appropriate project by the student,creating and meeting a schedule agreed upon by the student and the faculty supervisor, anddeveloping a suitable presentation of the completed project. Further complicating the process isthe administration and execution of the senior project in a distance learning environment.A senior design project requirement was introduced to the

It is now widely accepted that computer aidedinstruction can help students gain a better understanding of the subject matter if implementedappropriately15. This is particularly true for topics that involve motion of objects, three-dimensionalstructures or other significant visual components that are not easily represented on a black board.For example, engineering dynamics is the study of motion but this motion cannot be showneffectively using traditional teaching tools, including mechanical models, which are

A framework for analyzingvirtual reality media for applications in education is included. Special effort is directed towardspracticality in the field of engineering education, i.e., analyzing the cost to benefit ratio of usingdifferent teaching technologies. Lessons learned from this experiment are included. A key factor in the utility of this work is that only recently have virtual reality hardwaresystems become financially available to primarily undergraduate institutions. A new kind ofstripped-down virtual reality display has emerged that makes the technology affordable to most.Thus, bringing

A more recent report inthe UK by the Royal Academy of Engineering further emphasized the increasing need forengineers to develop multidisciplinary skills to work effectively on technological advances at theintersections of traditional disciplines [2]. Broo et al. further note that many traditionalboundaries between different engineering disciplines are “eroding”, thus necessitating engineersto be capable of continually learning new skills across disciplines [3]. These drivers are likelyamong the reasons that the use of “multidisciplinary” and similar terms in peer-reviewed paperscontinues to

This is arelatively new development in engineering design, which is not typically a part of an engineer’seducation. Furthermore, it is different from traditional engineering topics in that it requires anintegration of principles from both management and engineering design. All this makes for anew and different topic for which educational material needs to be developed.
