This paper describes a method that is used in School of Engineering Technology Department at McMaster University to promote experiential learning at undergraduate level through capstone projects. The goal of this paper is to demonstrate that capstone projects with limited budget can be effectively used to implement experiential learning methodology to engineering students. According to this methodology, students work in groups of three over two academic terms, to complete capstone projects that require designing, building, testing, and prototyping a final product. The methodology is addressed from the perspective of experiential learning theory, and several project cost-reducing strategies are presented. Selected results from student capstone projects at McMaster University are presented and discussed. Results indicate that capstone projects can be successfully implemented into experiential learning methodology when adequate strategies for reducing the project costs are considered.
