ENGR 4180 Senior Design 1
This one-hour credit course is designed to provide a culminating major engineering design experience that incorporates appropriate engineering standards and multiple constraints, and is based on the knowledge and skills acquired in earlier course work. Students study the concepts of engineering design process that includes task scheduling, planning, and development of a scope of work for applications in the design phase of a real-world engineering project. Students will focus on application of technical and non-technical skills and knowledge using a multidisciplinary team-based approach for solving real-world engineering design problems related to product and process development. The topics include systematic product development, development of business plans, project management, cost estimation, documentation and presentation, prototyping, fabrication, and concurrent engineering. First semester of a two-semester sequence engineering design experience simulating professional practice in engineering.
