Short Info: Integrated design courses provide an opportunity to apply the engineering knowledge and skills accumulated so far and to understand new concepts in engineering management. An engineering system design assignment is jointly agreed with a student, (or with a group of students), by the supervising professor. The team studies the problem, develops design alternatives, and selects the most feasible solution. The prototype of the system is completed after obtaining all the necessary materials and then checking and correcting any errors. After the system is completed the team presents the system design and prototype to a panel of judges for evaluation.
