Abstract

The primary goal of Rowan University's freshmen engineering course is to immerse students in multidisciplinary projects that teach engineering principles using the theme of engineering measurements in both laboratory and real-world settings. Currently, many freshman programs focus either on a design project or discipline specific experiments that may not be cohesively integrated. At Rowan, freshman engineers are introduced to industrial problems through a series of 4 modules and a interrelated-interactive lectures on problem solving, safety and ethics. In this paper a the process engineering module using the vehicle of a cogeneration plant is presented.
