EGR 151 - Engineering Design II


A continuation of Engineering Design I.  The bulk of this course focuses on developing skill with a computer aided drawing (CAD) program to create and manipulate three dimensional solid models.  Students continue working in teams on design projects with the goal of understanding and implementing the engineering design process for problem-solving.  The area of engineering ethics is investigated to create in students a realization of the importance of responsible behavior in the engineering field.

Course Profile
Learning Outcomes of the Course:

Upon successful completion of this course the student will be able to:

1.  Sketch a design tree of how a solid model of a three-dimensional object will be created in a CAD program.
2.  Use a parametric CAD program to:
     a.  Create a solid model of a three-dimensional object.
     b.  Edit and make changes to an existing solid model.
     c.  Produce dimensioned orthographic views from the solid model.
     d.  Connect several solid models together to form an exploded assembly drawing.
3.  Use various techniques to formulate the problem statement as the first step of the engineering design process.
4.  Define what a design contraint is, in general, and specifically, what an “ergonomic” constraint is.
5.  Describe what “intellectual property” means and the methods used to protect it.
6.  Discuss the role that engineering codes of ethics play in regulating the engineering profession.
7.  Describe and give examples of the consequences resulting from the failure to engage in ethical behavior in engineering practice.
