Applied Engineering Design 7,5 Credits

Course Contents

This course provides an opportunity to conduct project-based, hands-on, product development in collaboration with an industrial partner company, from an initial conceptual idea to a functioning prototype. A big part of the course is exposure to complex issues that arise from conflicting objectives, e.g., product performance vs cost.

The course includes the following elements:
- Re-design of an existing product, or a new design of a new product family member
- Building physical prototypes, hands-on, workshop
- Evaluating requirements using both virtual and physical testing
- Evaluating conflicting objectives (trade-off curves)
- Handling requirements for e.g., industrial design, production, sustainability, cost, tolerances, assembly, test standards, regulatory standards

Prerequisites

The applicant must hold the minimum of a bachelor’s degree (i.e the equivalent of 180 ECTS credits at an accredited university) with at least 90 credits in Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering (with relevant courses in construction), or equivalent. The bachelor’s degree should comprise a minimum of 15 credits in mathematics and 7.5 credits in CAD, or equivalent. Proof of English proficiency is required.
