Biosystems Engineering Design 2

4 cr · Undergraduate

(Lab required) An introduction to the use of reverse engineering to deduce design features from previously designed products or systems. Considerations such as design for sustainability and design for disassembly will be discussed. Students will have opportunity to use reverse engineering principles i) to understand how components fit together to form functional systems, ii) to identify flaws and iii) to propose design improvements. Students will learn appropriate techniques for documenting the reverse engineering process. Theory of project management will also be taught and discussed.
