This is forcing changes in theundergraduate ME curriculum. Starting in the 1970‟s,5,6 microprocessors have been incorporatedinto ME courses, usually in a senior technical elective or laboratory course at a number ofschools. Coursework on mechatronics, a discipline form at the overlap between mechanical,electrical, and computer engineering, exist in almost all engineering schools with minors anddegree programs available at some institutions.While a two-course sequence in mechatronics is routinely offered to seniors at Virginia Tech anda Minor in Mechatronics is under consideration

by Sheila Tobias3 and Richard Felder4 in the 1990’s are “second tier” engineeringstudents. Tobias3 defines first tier engineering students as those who have intentions and abilityto earn science degrees and do so. Second tier are students who have the initial intention andability but instead switch to nonscientific fields. For many engineering students who start atcommunity colleges or are a “second tier” student, the calculus math sequence is a key factor intheir decision to complete an engineering degree and then their time to graduation. This is due inpart to the math prerequisites required for engineering and physics courses. To finish anengineering degree in four years, a student needs to start in calculus 1 in the fall of the first

However, an interesting idea surfacedregarding the team status meetings with the instructor in which an interview Q&A style could beused to gather sufficient evidence.A pilot was conducted in spring 2010 involving the capstone for Electrical Engineering as wellas Computer Engineering majors. The face-to-face meetings with the teams provided anexcellent opportunity to evaluate the skill levels. The instructor reported that each teamemployed all 3 skills at one or more point(s) during the semester. The results are shown in Table5 for all 6 teams.

SummaryTraditional teaching tools for engineering economy have served the students well over the years.However, there is a need to enhance the learning experience based on contemporary students’expectations. It is shown that the case study based teaching approach utilized here incorporatesactive learning and the chosen case studies highlight the applications of theoretical principles toreal-world business problems. Case study-based analysis also enhances communication skills ofthe students. The students found the new case-study based teaching approach challenging as wellas rewarding.References 1. Grose, T.
