ME 400 Capstone Design I

Summer

Engineering students, operating in design teams, apply principles of the design process to create a product or process to meet the needs of a customer. Projects may originate from industry, as a contest sponsored by a professional society, or other venues. The design team, with the guidance of a faculty advisor, must plan, direct, conduct, and effectively communicate the results of the design effort through a professional engineering report and presentation. The design project will include material within and beyond the curriculum as well as technical and non-technical considerations. Design projects often result in a deliverable prototype. 1 lecture hour. 6 laboratory hours. Prerequisite: 2.0 or higher in EGR 342, ME 351, EGR 360, ME 380.
