Abstract
Recently, there have been a number of voices from industry that automotive education at the college is too theoretical and so college graduates are lack of practical ability to apply the automotive idea to actual systems. In order to educate engineering students design qualities in creative problem solving, this paper reports the results of employing engineering design projects in a Motor sports course of at A College. This paper presents design creterion and manufacture process of $CO_2$ model dragster, measures $CO_2$ model dragster speed and aerodynamic drag. In order to investigate the impact of engineering design on student's learning, a survey was conducted in 2008 spring semester. According to the results of survey analyses, student's key competencies and satisfaction reports high values on engineering design projects.
