MTLE-4920

Applications of Materials

A capstone experience to afford seniors in MS&E the unique and invaluable opportunity to participate as a vital member of a truly multidisciplinary design team (comprised of engineering students from other disciplines, as well as MBAs) and function just as they will as professionals in practice, in preparation for practice. The course revolves totally around a design project, focusing on the structure-property-process-performance interaction underlying all design, with no homework or exams; just memos on progress, individual and group meetings with the instructor, conceptual design report, project notebook or journal, and final report. Prerequisite: satisfactory completion of MTLE-4910. Spring term annually.
