Book Capstone Design Courses

Download or read book Capstone Design Courses written by Jay Richard Goldberg and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The biomedical engineering senior capstone design course is probably the most important course taken by undergraduate biomedical engineering students. It provides them with the opportunity to apply what they have learned in previous years; develop their communication (written, oral, and graphical), interpersonal (teamwork, conflict management, and negotiation), project management, and design skills; and learn about the product development process. It also provides students with an understanding of the economic, financial, legal, and regulatory aspects of the design, development, and commercialization of medical technology. The capstone design experience can change the way engineering students think about technology, society, themselves, and the world around them. It gives them a short preview of what it will be like to work as an engineer. It can make them aware of their potential to make a positive contribution to health care throughout the world and generate excitement for and pride in the engineering profession. Working on teams helps students develop an appreciation for the many ways team members, with different educational, political, ethnic, social, cultural, and religious backgrounds, look at problems. They learn to value diversity and become more willing to listen to different opinions and perspectives. Finally, they learn to value the contributions of nontechnical members of multidisciplinary project teams. Ideas for how to organize, structure, and manage a senior capstone design course for biomedical and other engineering students are presented here. These ideas will be helpful to faculty who are creating a new design course, expanding a current design program to more than the senior year, or just looking for some ideas for improving an existing course.

Book Product Design and Development Handbook

Download or read book Product Design and Development Handbook written by Steven W. Trimble and published by Cognella Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2022-02-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Product Design and Development Handbook: An Innovative, Entrepreneurial, and Structured Approach for Engineering Capstone and Industry Projects enables engineering students and practicing engineers to conduct successful product design and development projects. The text uses the Phased Product Development (PPD) process, which was developed by the authors and features two key elements: mini milestones that keep project design and development teams on schedule and within budget; and the use of phase exit checklists that ensure the team demonstrates evidence of meeting all Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and entrepreneurial mindset (EM) outcomes. The book is divided into 44 modules that align with a two-semester capstone product development course or can be tailored to support a one-semester course. Each module includes pre- and post-class session assignments that break the development process into mini-milestones. An example project--the design and development of a travel iron--is provided to help teams understand how the information in the text can be applied to an actual project. In addition to covering design, this handbook also addresses the important tasks of manufacturing, developing, and validating an engineering prototype. It integrates product engineering into the overall commercialization process. The attributes of "thinking like an engineer" and meeting the sponsor's expectations are emphasized throughout the book and paired with industry examples. The role of the engineering team in the overall product development effort is addressed using the Goldsmith Commercialization Model. The entrepreneurial mindset is integrated into each development phase and the Arizona State University (ASU) Fulton Schools of Engineering (FSE) EM@FSE 2.0 indicators are included in the phase exit checklists. Product Design and Development Handbook is applicable to single discipline, multi-discipline, and trans-discipline team-based product design and development projects and programs. Though the handbook uses mechanical engineering projects as a baseline, it can support all engineering disciplines.

Book The Engineering Capstone Course

Download or read book The Engineering Capstone Course written by Harvey F. Hoffman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential book takes students and instructors through steps undertaken in a start-to-finish engineering project as conceived and presented in the engineering capstone course. The learning experience follows an industry model to prepare students to recognize a need for a product or service, create and work in a team; identify competition, patent overlap, and necessary resources, generate a project proposal that accounts for business issues, prepare a design, develop and fabricate the product or service, develop a test plan to evaluate the product or service, and prepare and deliver a final report and presentation. Throughout the book, students are asked to examine the business viability aspects of the project. The Engineering Capstone Course: Fundamentals for Students and Instructors emphasizes that a design must meet a set of realistic technical specifications and constraints including examination of attendant economics, environmental needs, sustainability, manufacturability, health and safety, governmental regulations, industry standards, and social and political constraints. The book is ideal for instructors teaching, or students working through, the capstone course.

Book Development and Testing of Assessment Instruments for Multidiscimlinary Engineering Capstone Design Courses

Download or read book Development and Testing of Assessment Instruments for Multidiscimlinary Engineering Capstone Design Courses written by Robert Edward Gerlick and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research presented in this manuscript was focused on the development of assessments for engineering design outcomes. The primary goal was to support efforts by the Transferrable Integrated Design Engineering Education (tidee) consortium in developing assessment instruments for multidisciplinary engineering capstone courses. Research conducted in this study included (1) the development of an assessment structure and methodology for assessing engineering design processes and products, (2) exploring the reflective practices of students participating in a capstone design project, and (3) testing multiple tidee assessment instruments for inter-rater agreement. The assessment structure developed includes a comprehensive plan for assessing students' design process activities and products within the context of three design phases: the problem scoping, concept generation, and solution realization phases. For each phase, one formative assessment is implemented mid-phase and one summative assessment is implemented end-of-phase. The rationale for this structure is to provide students and instructors an optimally timed and sequenced plan for facilitating student reflections and for documenting achievement of student learning outcomes. Student reflective practices were studied and compared with existing conceptualizations of reflection. A modified analytic induction approach was used to review and reformulate existing reflection concepts based on student data. Six general categories were found to represent student reflective practice: realization of a problem or contrasting idea, clarification of the problem or idea, analysis of one's thinking leading to the problem or challenging belief, synthesis of existing knowledge and theories to make interpretation and meaning of the problem or belief, validation of one's existing or revised belief through corroboration, and gaining of a new perspective through critical thinking on foundational premises of the belief. Finally, seven tidee assessments were tested for inter-rater agreement, including Team Member Citizenship, Team Processes, Team Contract, Growth Planning, Growth Progress, Growth Achieved, and Professional Practices. Multiple faculty and teaching assistant raters scored subsets of student work after being given a brief training session on the assessments and scoring procedures. Results indicated acceptable inter-rater agreement for each of the assessments intended for formative use, and suggested one summative assessment, Growth Achieved, may need revisions to the assessment, performance criteria, or rater-training protocol.

Book Engineering Design

Download or read book Engineering Design written by Cory J. Mettler and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-01 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineering Senior Design is perhaps the course that most resembles what an engineering professional will be required to do during their career; it is the bridge between the academic classroom and the engineering profession. This textbook will support students as they learn to apply their previously-developed skills to solve a complex engineering problem during a senior-level design course. This textbook follows the design life cycle from project initiation to completion and introduces students to many soft engineering skills, such as communication, scheduling, and technical writing, in the context of an engineering design. Students are instructed how to define an engineering problem with a valid problem statement and requirements document. They will conceptualize a complex solution and divide that solution into manageable subsystems. More importantly, they will be introduced to Project Management techniques that will help students organize workloads, develop functional engineering-teams, and validate solutions, all while increasing the likelihood of a successful completion to the project. Throughout the experience, students are instructed that a well-intentioned solution is not particularly useful unless it can be communicated and documented. To that end, this textbook will help students document their work in a professional manner and to present their ideas to stakeholders in a variety of formal design-reviews. With the support of this textbook, by the end of a student’s senior design experience, each individual will be ready to communicate with other engineering professionals, effectively support engineering design-teams, and manage complex project to solve the next generation’s engineering challenges.
