EN2701

The purpose is to introduce students to the design process by having them participate in a semester-long design project. The project goals and design constraints will be well-defined by the instructor, but multiple solutions to the problem will be possible. Students will be required to make technical decisions, some of which may be based on incomplete information. Student teams will be expected to design, build, and test an electromechanical device. Using tools in the machine shop, students will be expected to manufacture components they have designed, and they will be expected to provide design and component drawings in CAD. The course will culminate with a working prototype. [Lab time required]
