A new spiral curriculum in Electrical Engineering was launched in the ECE Department of the University of Detroit Mercy in Fall 2005. The prime motivation was to address several critical issues - the lack of student motivation, the need to introduce the teaching of innovation across the curriculum, and adoption of effective teaching pedagogies that ensured learning. A key aspect of the curricular...
This paper discusses the successes and struggles that we have encountered while integrating the two-semester capstone design sequence for both the electrical and computer engineering (ECE) and mechanical engineering (ME) departments at the University of Detroit Mercy (UDM). The ECE sequence has been based on a competition-motivated structure that focuses student efforts on the development of autonomous...
Today, it is very important for engineering programs to have their traditional program streams vested with clearly identifiable themes for each concentration area within a program, and for each theme to have a clear connection with all of the associated course requirements of an area. Over the past seven years, three new courses in Mechatronics have been developed at the University of Detroit Mercy...
