Introduction to Engineering Design II (IE 202)

Pre-requisites: IE 200 and IE 201

Description: Engineering design process. Hands–on real life and team–based engineering design project: Project management, Problem definition, Functions and requirements, Alternative solutions, Modeling, Analysis and optimization, Prototyping, Experimental analysis, Communicating design outcomes. 

Text Book: Clive L. Dym, Patrick Little and Elizabeth J. Orwin. Engineering Design: A Project-Based Introduction, 4th edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., NJ, USA, 2014 

Course Learning Outcomes: By the completion of the course the students should be able to:

1. Describe the nature of engineering design and the roadmap of the design process as a response to the conflicting interests of different stakeholders.

2. Devise an effective work plan with manageable subtasks, resources, and timelines using standard project planning techniques to ensure project completion on time and within budget.

3. Define the problem and identify design attributes, objectives, metrics, and constraints by integrating customers’ needs, applicable realistic constraints and data collected from multiple credible sources of information.

4. Transform customer needs, objectives, and attributes into design requirements by identifying design functions, means of realization and performance specifications that demonstrate successful functional behavior.

5. Generate possible solutions and compare alternatives to select a baseline design based on solid evaluation criteria and feasibility analysis.

6. Integrate prior knowledge of science and mathematics with engineering principles, heuristics, modern engineering tools, and modeling techniques to analyze, estimate performance, and simulate design solutions.

7. Plan and execute effective manufacturing and testing procedures to produce a proof of concept working prototype. 

8. Document and communicate details of the design process and express thoughts clearly and concisely, both orally and in writing, using necessary supporting material, to achieve desired understanding and impact.

9. Achieve project objectives using independent, well organized, and regularly reported multidisciplinary team management techniques that integrate, evaluate, and improve different skills of team members.
