An Interdisciplinary Practice Based Design Course For First Semester Juniors

Baylor University undergraduate engineering students are introduced to engineering design in a required first-semester course (EGR 1301 – Introduction to Engineering) and conclude with a required final-semester senior course (EGR 4390 – Engineering Design II). Additional exposures to design, of various types and amounts, occur throughout the curriculum in required and elective courses involving specific technical areas. In addition to these design experiences, which are similar in form to those in many engineering undergraduate programs, Baylor undergraduate engineering students take a required first-semester junior course in design, EGR 3380 – Engineering Design I, commonly known as Junior Design.
