Professor James Holly Jr., addresses his MECHENG 499: Mechanical Engineering and Racial Justice in the Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Building on the North Campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor on Wednesday morning, March 22, 2023.
This is the second time the course, developed by Holly in 2021, has been offered. He typically begins with a key question, such as: “Is technology a barrier to, a tool for, or a non-factor for racial justice?” In this course, Holly wanted his students to use critical thinking in their responses.Traditional curricula often emphasize making, doing, and calculating—the tangible sides of engineering. Yet there isn’t always time and space for students to examine how their thoughts are being deliberately created and facilitated. Discussion questions are designed to give students the opportunity to both think collaboratively with others, as well as to speak up. Holly calls it “Think-Pair-Share,” where students first think of their own answers, pair up to discuss them, and then share with the whole classroom.

Kevin Farrell, engineering technician, acted as starter for the races.
Student teams from the Manufacturing and Design course competed in a year end drag race. The semester long project challenges students to design a dragster using engineering analysis so that it can race down a track and come to a stop after crossing the finish line. The competition winner is determined by a combination of speed, braking, and manufacturing cost for the car. The course was taught by Matt Rhudy, visiting assistant professor of mechanical engineering.

Real baggers were a lot bigger than this but the Lilliput is still a remarkable bit of mechanical engineering for cutting and spreading turf. Attymon Bog, Co Galway 17th May 2013
My pops found these calculators lying around the house. The graphing calculator on the right was THE thing back in 1992... and I could save equations for heat transfer exams. Probably not the advantage I thought it was back then. Plus, my math skillz are far from l33t.

Coast Guard Academy cadets present designs ranging from medical devices designed to prevent pressure ulcer complications to propulsion shaft anti-roll bars designed for use on a heavy icebreaker such as the Coast Guard Cutter Polar Star for the Mechanical Engineering department’s capstone projects, April 26, 2017.
These designs not only provide cadets with a solid set of skills, which can be utilized in the fleet, but also could make positive impacts on individuals outside of the Coast Guard.
