On the other hand, ABET asks that student design experiences includemany other "realistic" constraints, such as safety, reliability, aesthetics, ethics, and social impact.Although reliability and economics are often issues in competition designs, in terms of the overalleducational experience of the design project, competition-oriented designs are probably less richthan tackling a problem in the "real world," especially a project for a client who is outside ofacademia. This represents a weakness of design competitions.3. Although design competitions produce contrived problems rather than real ones, the richnessof realistic constraints that is missing is often offset by a richness in technical challenge. Well

engineering programs demonstrate that theirgraduates have fundamental knowledge and know how to apply it working in teams whileconsidering the ethical and societal context of their designs. Student teams competing incontests develop not only technical skills, but also communication and teaming skills. Typically,student teams must seek donations of components, supplies, equipment, and money thusdeveloping presentation and sales skills. Vehicle competitions, such as Sunrayce, Formula SAEMini-Indy, and SAE Mini-Baja, have a strong emphasis on safety leading students to understandtheir designs in terms of a broader context. All contests have rules. This forces students toconsider their interpretation. (Is it ethical during a solar car race to purposely
