Full Description
A concise and practical guide to succeeding in the undergraduate engineering capstone design project
In Engineering Capstone Design Project: Planning, Organizing, and Executing, a team of accomplished engineers delivers a practical guide for engineering students undertaking their capstone design project course in the final year of their bachelor program. It covers two aspects of the capstone course: planning and the design process. You'll explore how to organize your team, manage and develop your project, and communicate with clients, advisors, suppliers, and manufacturers. You'll also discover a detailed, step-by-step approach to the design process following the milestones and requirements of engineering capstone design courses.
The book focuses on the process of mechanical engineering design but also includes material covering electrical, chemical, biomedical, and control systems engineering design. It also offers several illustrative case studies of successful capstone design projects completed at McGill University.
Readers will also find:
A thorough introduction to the principles of organization of capstone design courses, including learning attributes and grade attribution
Comprehensive step-by-step instructions to the design process
Useful case studies from academic, industrial, and McGill student design competition capstone projects
Examples and anecdotes drawn from the authorial team's extensive professional and academic experience in engineering design and project advice
Perfect for undergraduate students taking the capstone mechanical engineering project course, Engineering Capstone Design Project: Planning, Organizing, and Executing will also benefit students of other engineering design courses seeking a clear, step-by-step approach to the design process.
