Senior Engineering Design II

Catalog description

The senior engineering design courses I and II constitute a two-semester sequence of an interdisciplinary activity. The objective of these courses is to provide engineering students with supervised experience in the process and practice of engineering design. Projects are chosen by the students or the faculty. Students working in teams pursue an idea from conception to realistic design. The course is climaxed by the presentation of a substantial written report and a formal oral presentation before faculty and students. Typically offered Fall Spring Summer. Prerequisite(s): ME 42900 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D- OR CE 42900 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D- Experiential Learning (EXL): Yes Course Learning Outcomes 1. Pursue an idea from conception to realistic design, construction, and testing. 2. Investigate and gather information on a technical issue. 3. Formulate and solve engineering problems, recognize relevant parameters, identify principles, and make reasonable simplifying assumptions and approximations. 4. Design components, systems, or processes that meet specifications and constraints. 5. Identify goal(s) and the activities necessary to reach the goal(s). 6. Prioritize tasks, manage time, control expenses, and prepare plans to complete a project within budget and time constraints. 7. Communicate effectively, both orally and in writing. 8.
