<p>This course will develop advanced principles of engineering design. Approaches to the design of specific artifacts are considered in the broader context of the choices presented to a design engineer. The design process includes considerations of safety and compliance with standards. Assessment of failure is also discussed in some depth. This course will have a common taught component with a range other engineering disciplines and a discipline specific group design.</p>
