Bhatia & Von Lockette Catalog Description: This course is part of the Junior / Senior clinic sequence. Research and/or design projects are selected in keeping with program objectives. Projects are supported by external sponsors when possible and are expected to incorporate program goals where practical. These include multidisciplinary teamwork, entrepreneurship, vertical integration of juniors and seniors and an emphasis on communication skills. Prerequisites: Junior Engineering Clinic 1: Undergraduate level ENGR 01202 Minimum Grade of D- and Undergraduate level MATH 01236 Minimum Grade of D- and (Undergraduate level CHE 06302 Minimum Grade of D- or Undergraduate level ECE 09311 Minimum Grade of D- or Undergraduate level ENGR 01272 Minimum Grade D-) Junior Engineering Clinic 2: Undergraduate level ENGR 01301 Minimum Grade of D- Senior Engineering Clinic 1: Undergraduate level ENGR 01302 Minimum Grade of D- Senior Engineering Clinic 2: Undergraduate level ENGR 01401 Minimum Grade of D- Engineering Clinic Objectives: At the conclusion of the course, students will (i) Demonstrate expanded knowledge of the general practices and the profession of engineering through immersion in an engineering project environment of moderate to high complexity. (ii) Demonstrate an ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary team. (iii) Demonstrate acquisition of new technology skills through use or development of appropriate computer hardware, software, and/or instrumentation. (iv) Demonstrate business and entrepreneurial skills which may include developing a business plan, market plan, venture plan, or other approved instrument. (v) Demonstrate effective use of project and personnel management techniques. (vi) Identify and meet customer needs. (vii) Integrate engineering professionalism, ethics, and the environmental in their work and as it relates to the context of engineering in society. (viii) Demonstrate improved communication skills including written, oral, and multimedia. This may include both patent and literature searches as well as writing a patent disclosure for novel work. Required Texts & Supplies: - Laboratory notebook w/ numbered pages, duplicate page sets; e.g., Boorum #09-9088. - Appropriate safety equipment as specified by your faculty project manager in the initial HAZOP analysis of your project. Individual work areas in Rowan Hall require specified personal protective equipment (e.g. machine shops and chemical related laboratories). If required by the project manager or working area designation, students are expected to purchase their own safety glasses. - Handout materials.2 Course Withdrawal Schedule1 Dates Designations on Transcript Signature(s) Required Jan 25 –Mar 7, 2011 W Student, PM Mar 8 - Apr 4, 2011 WP/WF PM, Dept. Chair Apr 5 – May 7, 2011 WP/WF PM, Dept. Chair, Dean Common Grading Guidelines for Jr/Sr Engineering Clinic The following are general guidelines for establishing grades for the Junior/Senior Engineering Clinic. These guidelines are further detailed in specific departmental grading guidelines and criteria that will be distributed by your Discipline Managers. Your faculty project managers in consultation with your discipline manager will assign your grades. A grade of incomplete may be given if requested work is incomplete such as instrumentation and tools are not returned, waste is not properly disposed, laboratory area is not clean, laboratory notebooks and electronic files are not transferred to faculty. Grade Guidelines A - Exceed Expectations - Take charge of the project and generate tasks from goals and objectives. - Think independently, ask questions and make suggestions. - Develop original solutions by combining theory and/or analytical techniques that demonstrate a mastery of engineering science and/or design principles from one or more supporting engineering courses. - Demonstrate the ability to engage in lifelong learning by applying engineering science and/or design principles that are not covered in your supporting engineering courses. - Complete all project deliverables and objectives. - Effectively communicate (via written, oral, engineering drawings, etc.) project deliverables to your project manager and/or external sponsor. - Exhibit consistently strong team and individual performance in terms of project deliverables and objectives as well as laboratory safety, team skills, record keeping, punctuality, etc. B - Take charge of the project and do all of the work that you are asked to do. - Ask questions and make suggestions. - Develop solutions by applying theory and/or analytical techniques that demonstrate a mastery of engineering science and/or design principles from one or more supporting engineering courses. - Complete all project deliverables and objectives. - Effectively communicate (via written, oral, engineering drawings, etc.) project deliverables to your project manager and/or external sponsor. - Exhibit strong team and individual performance in terms of project deliverables and objectives as well as laboratory safety, team skills, record keeping, punctuality, etc. C - Do all of the work you are asked to do. - Develop solutions by applying theory and/or analytical techniques. - Complete all project deliverables and objectives. - Communicate (via written, oral, engineering drawings, etc.) project deliverables to your project manager and/or external sponsor. - Exhibit average team and individual performance in terms of project deliverables and objectives as well as laboratory safety, team skills, record keeping, punctuality, etc. D - Do some of the work what that you are asked to do. 1 For a complete description of this procedure please refer to Rowan University Student Information Guide
