This course explores elements of the engineering design process as a means of enhancing student ability in problem definition; development and evaluation of creative alternatives, application and methods of technical and economic analysis, identification and application of ethical and legal constraints, and effective presentation of technical information. Design projects are developed from specifications submitted by industry and other organizations and are pursued over the course of two quarters as a team project, 89/90. Written and oral proposal and progress report are required for the design project during the term. A project advisor is required for each design team to serve as consultant to the team's efforts.
