FUNDAMENTALS OF ENGINEERING DESIGN I
3
This course will introduce students to the ideas of engineering design. It will expose students to the team based
process of engineering design. Course will explore what is engineering design. The basic terminology of the
design process will be examined. The iterative nature of the design process will also be explored. Students will
employ the principles of design to build a project given real world constraints and specifications. Students will
prepare a posted, present the poster, and demonstrate the completed project at the end of the term.
Prerequisite: None
Course is offered: FA Every Year
ENR 149
