ME450 (Version: 2009 1) COURSE DETAILS


COURSE TITLE EFF YEAR EFF TERM DEPARTMENT CREDIT HOURS
ME450 ME DESIGN OF ARMY SYSTEMS 2009 1 Civil and Mechanical Engineering 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=3.0, MA=0.0)
SCOPE
This course presents mechanical engineering design as an iterative decision making process. A wide variety of mathematics, science, and engineering fundamentals are applied to the synthesis, analysis, and evaluation of mechanical components. The culminating design project provides an opportunity to experience design and to consider reliability, economics, and the judicious use of resources. A paper design and design and build projects reinforce the design process instruction. The course culminates in a student competition.
LESSONS: 38 @ 55 min (2.500 Att/wk) LABS: 2 @ 55 min
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
Design projects as assigned; compensatory time provided.

COURSE TITLE EFF YEAR EFF TERM DEPARTMENT CREDIT HOURS
ME450 ME DESIGN OF ARMY SYSTEMS 2006 1 Civil and Mechanical Engineering 3.0 (BS=0.0, ET=0.0, MA=0.0)
SCOPE
This course presents mechanical engineering design as an iterative decision making process. Includes coverage of information and needs analysis, creativity in generating alternatives, feasibility and merit analysis, and optimization in design presentation. A wide variety of mathematics, science, and engineering fundamentals are applied to the synthesis, analysis, and evaluation of mechanical components. The culminating design project provides an opportunity to experience design and to consider reliability, economics, and the judicious use of resources. A semester long design and build project reinforces the design process instruction and culminates in a student competition.
LESSONS: 40 @ 55 min (2.500 Att/wk) LABS: 0 @ 0 min
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:
Semester-long design project; compensatory time provided.
