Course Description
Students in this course work primarily in teams to solve real-world and simulated problems in the field of engineering. Case studies of real-world engineering projects are used to demonstrate principles of design. As examples, students may analyze the failing O-ring on the space shuttle Challenger to investigate how components in a system function together and the significance of manufacturing tolerances. Or they may review the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse to understand how inadequate knowledge of materials and insufficient testing can lead to failure.
Student teams also construct and test their own working models and prototypes, such as suspension or truss bridges, solar-powered cars, electrical circuits, or gliders. They learn the physics behind their designs, covering aspects of mechanics, electricity and magnetism, fluids, or optics.
As a part of the engineering design process, students create decision matrices that help them weigh economic and ethical considerations along with technological ones. Students submit written reports for review. They leave the class with a broader view of the field of engineering and deeper understanding of the day-to-day work of engineers. Moreover, they leave with skills and knowledge that they can apply to creating innovations or developing solutions to real-world engineering challenges in their own lives and communities.
