This project is an opportunity to apply engineering principles in a practical manner. In this project, you will begin developing the knowledge and principles that will become increasingly vital in your engineering education. The written and oral portions of your project as well as the design itself will be graded. In addition, your design will be in competition with the projects of other design teams throughout all the E497F classes this Fall. Each design will be graded (25% of E497F) and judged (for the competition) according to specific requirements (on the following pages) during the Freshman Design Day on Wednesday, December 6 in the Talley Student Center Ballrooms. Procedure: Engineering Design Teams will consist of four to five members. Select one of the following design projects to complete: Presentation:Each team will prepare a 5-8 minute oral presentation supported by presentation materials (ie. posterboards, spreadsheets, Powerpoint slides, graphs, pictures, etc.) and a physical demonstration of the design project they have completed. The presentation will also be given during the Freshman Design Day (Wednesday, December 6). IMPORTANT NOTE: Each project team should frequently read the postings for their project on the Wolfware message boards. All teams will be held responsible for the information that is posted there. Be sure to read ALL messages for a project before you post your specific question. It may have already been answered. |
