Within the context of this project, students have designed,built, and tested electronic systems to perform sophisticated signal and image processing, to evaluate computernetwork performance, to measure water flow in the canals in Venice, and even to develop experiments whichwere carried on the Space Shuttle. Given the nature of an MQP, it provides a unique opportunity for studentsto complete serious projects that apply current technology to solve real engineering problems.Perhaps even more importantly, the MQP provides an ideal mechanism for fulfilling the ABET-requiredcapstone design component of

It is also very important that thesetechnologies be integrated to maximize their effectiveness.

One student expressed frustrationthe team forgot a camera because this student believed “cameras offer better evidence.”Engineering design educators may benefit from helping students learn to critically evaluatepictorial evidence.
