The major goal of the two-semester Capstone course sequence (MFGE 401-MFGE 402) is to

allow the students to apply their manufacturing engineering knowledge for

 

- Learning and practicing engineering design,

- Experiencing an engineering design process starting from the conceptual recognition up to

the physical manufacturing and testing.

 

MFGE 401-MFGE 402 will help students to understand and implement all steps of the design

process and use computing tools whenever necessary. In addition, students will improve their

skills in project and time management, team working, and oral and written presentation through working with a team of colleagues (i.e. supervisors, industry sponsors if there are any, teammates). The students will have a chance to cope with the complexity of a real-life design project and understand the codes of professional behavior going through an entire design process as a team.
