Engineering Design & Analysis Workshop I.

Catalog description

Students learn the foundation skills, concepts, structure, and application of engineering design by working individually and in teams on a variety of design related activities and projects. The course activities require students to identify opportunities, develop requirements, perform analysis/synthesis, generate multiple solutions, evaluate them against requirements, and make trade-offs by applying appropriate math, basic science or engineering, involve (iterative and creative) decision-making process for devising a system, component or a process to meet desired needs by considering technical constraints, risks, public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors (such as accessibility, aesthetics, codes, constructability, cost, ergonomics, extensibility, functionality, interoperability, legal considerations, maintainability, manufacturability, marketability, policy, regulations, schedule, standards/codes, sustainability, or usability), design thinking, design sprints, usability for product/process development. (Fall) Prerequisite: EG1303.
