Since 1992, students in our undergraduate mechanical engineering program have been carrying out major design projects. The process of integrating major design project activities was spread over three phases. The first phase, which took place between 1992 and 1994, consisted of a pilot program with forty students. The implementation of an engineering design option between 1995 and 1999 constituted the second phase. The last phase embraced the complete reform of the undergraduate curriculum based on the development of competencies and the horizontal/vertical integration of engineering sciences and engineering design.
