, the capstone experience reported on in this article,has served as a microcosm of the four year curriculum, and at the same time, provided insightsinto future curricular changes necessary to improve design education of the students. Page 15.999.14The teaching partnership between academics and practitioners has resulted in a totally newexperience for the students. Senior students, working in teams, have produced engineeredsolutions to real design problems, with an understanding of the socioeconomic, environmentaland political implication of their work. As a consequence, students have gained good insightsinto the “nuts and bolts” of design in

As each module was completed, it wasassimilated into the larger project program. The module is then called as a function anytime thattask was needed. Some examples of the smaller coding modules are below.Ultrasound CodeThis function sends a short pulse then listens for the echo.

In a compelling MAA address in 1997 (transcribed and available widely online), famousItalian mathematician Gian-Carlo Rota laments that “Most of the material now taught in an introductorydifferential equations course is hopelessly obsolete [1].” Some of the techniques in solving ODEs that helabelled as “disconnected tricks” and “preposterous” are exact equations, integrating factors, andsubstitution-based techniques to solve homogeneous differential equations.In recent years, fortunately, there has been an increasing emphasis on
