For more than twelve years, design has been successfully integrated into two, erstwhile, lecture courses in the ME curriculum of Indiana University Purdue University Fort Wayne. The courses are Fluid Mechanics (a required course) and Vibration Analysis (a technical elective). This concept is part of an educational philosophy that distributes design experience across the curriculum before it culminates into two capstone-design courses in the senior year. This success has led the author to change the way he teaches engineering science courses.
