| CME 480 Design Project II |
Objectives
To learn how to:
| design and fabricate tooling |
| use (composites) manufacturing processes and assembly/finishing methods to produce a functioning prototype |
| define applicable testing, perform the testing, and report the results |
| prepare a poster and give a team presentation |
| create and publish a website |
| work effectively in a project team environment |
(In industry, it may be more cost effective to work closely with suppliers who possess a particular expertise not found within your organization rather than try and develop that expertise in-house. This course strives to provide a design experience representative of that found in industry. However, the educational setting also gives students the opportunity to use equipment and work with materials they may not have the chance to work directly with once they leave here. Therefore, it is expected students will take full advantage of this opportunity to get their hands dirty!)
