A new Engineering program has been started in the fall of 2005 at the University of British Columbia, Okanagan Campus. There is a common curriculum for all first and second year students in Civil, Mechanical, and Electrical Engineering. A design project hosted by two separate courses and spanning topics of all three fields of Engineering helps students to decide at the end of their second year, which Engineering program suits them best.

Product Definition

The Engi. 5800 Electrical Engineering Design course was introduced in 2008 to the electrical engineering curriculum of Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN). This compulsory course is offered in term 5 and typical enrolment is about 25 to 30 students. The nature of this course is fundamentally different from other lecture-based courses taught at the Faculty of Engineering. In this course, students work in groups on two design projects at a time. One design project i.e. emergency light design is a guided design project while the other is a student led design project. Design projects require students to follow a hierarchy of design process which includes: the general product definition, specifications and requirements, functional block diagrams, definition of specification of functional blocks for circuit level synthesis and implementation, system integration, simulation or modeling, testing and verification. All projects are a significant technical challenge and require students to apply their knowledge of electrical engineering learned through courses in the electrical engineering program. The course is designed to provide a meaningful design experience and encourage confidence building in students. This paper describes course details, organization, design methodology, types of projects and course outcome.
