Overall, the students of this track‘should demonstrate a capacity for flexibility and resilience, as shown by adapting to changingand complex circumstances, balancing competing demands, accepting uncertainty andambiguity, and knowing when to consult with their Capstone instructor’. As with any capstonecourse, project planning, team management, applied research and communication are importantaspects to be demonstrated by the students.Callender, et al participated in a breakout session at the 2012 Trends in Undergraduate Researchin the Mathematical Sciences conference [5]. They concluded that there is not one design for acapstone course that will satisfy the needs and goals of every mathematics program, but

We provide three examples to showthe application of this universal approach to different types of problems that involve bearingsupports. We have found assessing the effectiveness of this approach difficult in a Statics class,but plan on implementing an assessment in Capstone Design.Introduction and MotivationThe fundamental purpose of a Statics course is to initiate and encourage the development of astudent’s engineering judgment, at least with regards to mechanics, by employing the free-bodydiagram (FBD) as a tool.
