Chateau pomme de terre

The newly formed Engineering Science department at the University of Brunei Darussalam (UBD) has recently initiated a 2-semester, 3-hour per week course entitled, "Engineering Design and Innovation". This year the students are tasked with designing, manufacturing and programming a working Mechatronic Potato Shaping machine that is required to form a potato into an 8-sided shape, known as a "Chateau Pomme-de-Terre", which is a shape similar to that of an American football. This paper describes the outline of the course and how students are initiated into the design and innovation of a Mechatronic machine together with the integration of the English Communication Skills course as a necessary scaffold to the required engineering genres related to reading/writing and oral/aural skills for efficient and effective execution of the course.
