The summer course will introduce various design concepts and approaches for performing engineering design and prototyping through a project from real-world. Students will learn how to perform user, product and market survey and make product definition. As a blended, project-based course, students will also learn how to select between different engineering tools for manufacturing and assembly of a functional prototype, and how to acquire new tools independently in the future to meet unexpected challenges. Students are required to complete project in team in a studio environment where students will develop an understanding of shared engineering practice.The summer course is aimed at enabling students to make the choices necessary to successfully complete an engineering design. By conducting an experiment, doing a rough estimation, performing a detailed calculation based on mathematical models, or creating a computer simulation, students will select the best part from a catalog, choose an appropriate material, determine the effect of certain influences on their design.For Year-1 students only.
