Synopsis
Product Design and Development is a unique course developed
to prepare the students to design products and develop
technologies for current and future needs. This course is a
project-based course that covers modern tools and methods for
product design and development. The cornerstone is a project in
which teams of management, engineering, and industrial design
students conceive, design and prototype a physical product. Class
sessions are conducted in workshop mode and employ cases and
hands-on exercises to reinforce the key ideas. Topics include
identifying customer needs, concept generation, product
architecture, industrial design, and design-for-manufacturing.
