an Engineering Technology curriculum provides an opportunity forstudents to integrate both technical and non-technical skills in the solution of a complex problem.As such, in addition to reinforcing skills and knowledge acquired in earlier coursework, it is anideal point in the curriculum to address and assess the knowledge of students as it relates tocontemporary issues in the profession, professional responsibilities to society, and the need forself-study and lifelong learning for professional success. It is traditional in many engineeringand engineering technology programs to supplement the Capstone Experience with lectures onprofessional topics, such as the design process, reliability and safety in design, and intellectualproperty law
