AB  - The mechanical and mechatronic engineering programs at California State University Chico conclude with a robust, externally funded, two-semester capstone design experience. Students in both majors work in interdisciplinary teams on year-long design projects sponsored by industrial partners. Project teams are assigned a faculty advisor whose role [1] is multi-faceted, but does not include day-to-day project management or responsibility for project success.

Design projects in industry typically have an assigned project manager (PM) with responsibility for overall project success as well as a lead role in initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, and controlling the project. The PM is typically compensated at a higher rate than other members of the team and often has a supervisory or managerial role over them.

There are three primary hurdles to implementing an industrial model of project management in an educational setting. All project team members are peers; none are additionally compensated for PM duties; and none have a supervisory role over the others. The Capstone Design Program at California State University Chico has implemented three alternative models of project management for capstone teams over the past five years. This paper details the various approaches and examines four different metrics to assess the effectiveness of each.
