Project Title: Design Project

Engineering design project in which students will work in small groups to utilize industry relevant skills to “realize” a joint idea. The groups will aim to select a marketable product idea, then evaluate designs based off of generative design data and available manufacturing options.

The project focuses on developing a functional product and looking at the available resources and associated costs of manufacturing their design. This will involve brainstorming their market/clientele and working through prototyping a novel product. Students will leave this project with a true taste for the engineering cycle of a new product.
