(QUANTITATIVE REASONING)

ENGR 489 ENGINEERING DESIGN PROJECT (4 credits)

Design an engineering solution to a specified need, incorporating appropriate engineering process and standards and meeting multiple realistic constraints. Research prior knowledge; identify clear design specifications; create prototypes; conduct appropriate experimentation, modeling, and theoretical analysis; and analyze and interpret results. Each student's individual contribution will address a unique project component or system and be appropriate and sufficient for writing up as a senior thesis.
