VI. COURSEOBJECTIVES:
At the completion of this course the student will be able to:
1. work in design teams to solve problems that result in the design of new products.
2. learn to recognize and apply attributes and brainstorming techniques to solve problems.
3. maintain a design notebook detailing possible solutions, selecting an appropriate solution.
4. draft a complete set of working detail and assembly drawings of the problem solution.
5. specify manufacturing methods for product construction.
6.estimate retail price of product from bill of material, estimated material costs,
labor costs, and assembly requirements.
7. complete a simulated market survey for product.
VII. COURSE METHODOLOGY:
Course Methodology is at the discretion of the instructor. The course material will be primarily delivered through the lecture/discussion method. Special attention will be given to interactive problem solving. Lecture experiences are included as well as hands-on demonstrations and in-class design work.
VIII.GRADING:
Grading will follow the policy in the catalog.Typically, grading will be based on the
following:
100 – 90 = A
89 – 80 = B
79 – 70 = C
69 – 60 = D
59 – 0 = F
