For the first project, the studentswork in teams of three to develop and build a mechanical system to accomplish a simpletask. During the second, a “paper” design of a more complex system is completed. Thesecond project is accomplished by dividing the task into subsystems which are designedby teams of four. Each team of four is then required to select a representative to insuresuccessful integration of the final system with other teams. Team formation is based onthe student’s problem solving preferences in a manner devised by Prof. Douglas Wilde ofStanford University.

aimed at educating engineers beyond knowledge transfer through the development of student know-how and know-how-to-be (i.e., attitudes). This is achieved via four major program thrusts, which are: integrating knowledge, learning in an engineering context, promoting technical and personal achievement and increasing student responsibilities. As salient programmatic features, this curriculum incorporates, among others: design from day 1, a closely integrated sequence of courses within a semester and from one semester to the next, engineering integration semester projects and a large-scale capstone design activity. In addition to presenting a broad overview of this curriculum, the paper focuses on the first semester
