Course synopsis:
This course introduces basic concept in design process,

techniques and tools used. It exposes the student to design new

products or/and improve the existing products through conceptual
design. This course will expand the application of computer aided

design (CAD) software such as CATIA in the design processes

starts with sketching the design idea towards producing a final
model. This will provide the student with a better understanding of

CAD software applications, able to create 3 dimensional products,

assemble the models and also be able to produce mechanical
drawing of high enough quality to be used in a design portfolio.

Science, ENGINEERING & technology

Science
The investigation of natural phenomena through observation, theoretical
explanation, and experimentation, or the knowledge produced by such
investigation. Science makes use of the scientific method, which includes
the careful observation of natural phenomena, the formulation of a
hypothesis, the conducting of one or more experiments to test the
hypothesis, and the drawing of a conclusion that confirms or modifies the
hypothesis. (The American Heritage Science Dictionary)

Engineering
The application of science to practical uses such as the design of
structures, machines, and systems. Engineering has many specialities such
as civil engineering, chemical engineering, and mechanical engineering.
(The American Heritage Science Dictionary)

Technology
The use of scientific knowledge to solve practical problems, especially in
industry and commerce. The specific methods, materials, and devices used
to solve practical problems. (The American Heritage Science Dictionary)

Engineering design
The set of decision-making processes and
activities used to determine the form of an
object given the functions desired by the
customer.
Utilize knowledge and methods from the
basic sciences, mathematics, and
engineering sciences to predict or simulate
the performance of each alternative before it
is built.
