IntroductionOne characteristic of the engineering discipline that distinguishes it from the science disciplines isengineering design. Practicing engineers in industry spend a considerable amount of time involvedwith design of a product, process, or system. It is, therefore, essential that undergraduate studentspreparing for professional careers in engineering be exposed to the concepts of engineering design.The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)1 defines engineering design as “… the process of devising a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. It is a

analytical and communication skills, as well asleadership, ingenuity, lifelong learning and the ability to be responsive to input from a broadrange of disciplines [4]. Furthermore, considering recent industry feedback and the rise of globalization within theworkplace, it is growing more apparent that employers also value creative solutions, criticalthinking, and problem solving skills in their new hires [2]. According to the United State’sAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), design is recognized as central toall types of engineering and aids in developing a student’s ability to evaluate and design a need-fulfilling system, process or component [7]. By exposing a first year student to design andmanufacturing principles
in communicationsskills and meeting deadlines.Studies done at the University of Houston [1] show that the declining enrollment in theirprogram was directly linked to the student’s awareness that the program offerings did notmeet the local needs. The program was built on a “me too” philosophy, that is, itparalleled other successful programs of the “80”s. The market for their graduatesaturated after a few years because the area is mainly concerned with the petrochemicalindustries and process control. There is limited need for graduates whose knowledgebase is RF and other electronic fields.In addition to technical knowledge and skills, engineering technology graduates areexpected to have significant communication and persuasion skills (both

for future outreach projects and a moreknowledgeable community on engineering. In addition, this outreach project exposed theundergraduates to the demand for more engineers and encourages them to continue outreach incommunity.Introduction The United States is increasingly looking to engineering as part of the solution to ourrecent economic downturn, as well as to global challenges including sustainability and ever-changing technology. To this end, President Obama set a goal to graduate 10,000 moreengineers each year from American institutions [1]. In addition, Energy Secretary Steven Chuhas stated, “We need engineers. We need scientists. This is going to be at the heart of how theUnited States is going to remain competitive” [2

At that time, most engineering programs, including PUC’s, had removedmanufacturing processes from their curricula as engineering programs became more sciencebased as a result of the space race. Technology programs stepped in and took over most of theapplication-oriented courses, including manufacturing processes. The MET and IET programs atPUC started in 1969, and they have been the primary users of the manufacturing laboratory eversince. However, industry
