| Course Description |
This course will continue the freshman year experience in design. The engineering method introduced in Engineering Design I will be reinforced. Further introduction of professional practice topics will be linked to their application and testing in case studies and project work. Basic concepts of design for environment and aesthetics will be introduced.
After completing this module students should be able to
formulate an approach to achieve experimental objectives using sound engineering judgment and a quantitatively based data collection and analysis procedure.
assess existing designs and their limitations and be able to identify alternative solutions with improved results.
use computer based computational tools such as EXCEL to find graphical, numerical, and analytic solutions to problems.
use graphical programming language LabVIEW to interface various sensors to a computer data acquisition system to collect and analyze sensor information.
individually function effectively on teams by acting cooperatively and honoring individual commitments to the team.
collectively function professionally as a team, adhering to a project WBS and schedule to achieve project milestones on time.
deliver an effective oral presentation appropriate to the audience.
