Applied Engineering Design II - Major Research Project

[1.00] credits · Graduate

This course builds upon knowledge foundations and team-based project proposals from ENGG*6960 . Student design teams work in consultation with a faculty advisor to develop a design concept through detail design, prototyping (virtual or physical) and testing phases. Students apply advanced engineering science knowledge and develop skills in computer-assisted design, reverse engineering and additive manufacturing. The course culminates with submission of a written report, delivery of an oral presentation and a prototype demonstration. Lecture-based case studies are drawn from across engineering disciplines to illustrate fundamental design principles of reliability, safety, sustainability and cost.
