ME310是斯坦福大学自1967年开始教授的一门激进课程。这个为期一年的课程是研究生水平的课程，学生团队在由行业合作伙伴赞助的复杂工程项目中工作。学生团队完成设计过程，从定义设计需求到构建可用于消费者测试和技术评估的功能原型。本文首次对ME310进行了纵向研究，并将这门课程分为九个时代，每个时代都有不同的教学理念和课堂动态。纵观整个工程设计课程，我们可以大致了解工程设计领域在过去四十年的发展历程。本研究的数据来自80项调查、28次访谈以及42年的历史大学招生记录、课程档案和课程公告。
ME310 is a radical course that has been taught at Stanford University since 1967. The year-long course is a graduate level sequence in which student teams work on complex engineering projects sponsored by industry partners. Student teams complete the design process from defining design requirements to constructing functional prototypes that are ready for consumer testing and technical evaluation. This paper presents the first longitudinal study of ME310 and characterizes the course in terms of nine eras, each with distinctive teaching philosophies and class dynamics. By looking at one engineering design course in its entirety, a rough parallel is gained of how the field of engineering design itself has evolved over the last forty years. Data for this study was drawn from 80 surveys, 28 interviews, and 42 years of historical university enrollment records, course archives, and course bulletins.
