students set priorities in engineering design,Cynthia et al., 2008 [31] used a mixed methods approach to examine how engineering studentsuse their design skills to solve real-world problems. They found that engineering students aremore likely to think like professionals in their senior year compared to freshmen students, whoapproach design issues based on their introductory courses. The senior students also prioritizedmetrics such as budget and safety, leading them to conclude that capstone students are able tofocus on an holistic design solution compared to the first-year students, whose focus was basedon getting the project done faster [31]. Another study by Zheng et al., 2018 [32] involvedassisting students in engineering design process. The

that readymade input/output blocks do notexist for most microcontrollers, sensors, and actuators and would need to be created whenworking outside of highly specialized contexts. When students proceed to implement a controlsystem in a subsequent capstone design or industry project, they will need to work out the detailsof implementation themselves, using their improved physical intuition as a compass. One benefitof this approach is that students were not overwhelmed by the task, and they rated the difficultyof these labs as between “fair” and “easy”. However, this may suggest there was an opportunityto expose students to a more of the challenging elements of hardware implementation.Taking a different approach, Goodwin et al. developed a series

After analysis of thetopics and via discussions with chemical engineering students who have taken this class, it wasclear that certain important pieces of information, including things specific to chemicalengineering students, were never being discussed or even conveyed. Hence, the next logical stepwas to generate a separate class, Introduction to Chemical Engineering, which was to be requiredof all entering chemical engineering freshman.
