Prerequisite(s): EGR2000; EM 3500; ME 3110; ME 3400; & ME 3405, senior standing.
The presentation of a creative engineering design solution to a real-world physical problem. The design solution will involve the formal and creative application of mathematics, science, and mechanical engineering theory. Students will aim to produce systems that will be safe, cost-effective, and are technically sound solutions to the problem. Coursework will include: establishing specifications, conceptual system design, subsystem analysis and characterization, equipment sourcing, and the production of technical documentation for the design. Periodic progress reports to the technical advisor are required. Credit(s): 2
