Programme Outlines and Overviews

Applied Engineering Design 7.5 credits

Course content

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
