Through case studies, hands-on projects and theoretical knowledge this course introduces the student to essential skills in the engineering design and development process. Concepts and processes such as project management, teamwork and communication are addressed as students learn about critical phases of the design and development process such as understanding the design requirements, identifying stakeholder constraints, generating alternatives, and communicating the design. Students will apply engineering theory and technology to explore, model, prototype, and present product designs for the built environment.
