First Year Design Showcase: Spring 2019

During the first year at TCNJ, all engineering students take ENG 142 – Fundamentals of Engineering Design.

Fundamentals of Engineering Design provides an introduction to the study of engineering design and the fundamental skill-sets used in the design process. Topics include team dynamics, effective oral and written communication, spatial visualization, and problem solving/engineering design process. These topics are practiced through team-based projects and interactive activities. Breakout sessions specific to each discipline cover additional appropriate topics, providing an overview of several areas of engineering outside of the declared major.

Freshmen complete a Student Design Showcase Project and present their projects at the end of the semester. The Spring 2019 problem statement was to “Design and build a table top toy using recycled materials for a specific age group that is creative, fun to play, and utilizes both luck and skill.” Below is a list of the teams from the Spring 2019 semester.
