ME153

This course introduces engineering design with a focus on an iterative design process. Throughout the course, a group project cements the topics learned through active application to a real design problem. The lectures are broken into three sections. Section 1 introduces a version of this iterative Design Cycle, which comprises four components: 1) Define, 2) Ideate, 3) Prototype & Test, and 4) Analyze. These steps are repeated many times over the course of design development, not always in this order. Section 2 of the course focuses on applying this Design Cycle to the team project. Section 3 wraps up and focuses on presenting the project.
