Striking a Balance between Engineering Science and Engineering Design: Development of an Engineering Systems and Design Program

建议没有。项目名称：在工程科学和工程设计之间取得平衡：工程系统和设计项目的发展摘要本项目的目标是开发一门本科工程课程，使学生在两个或多个传统工程学科的边界上作为设计工程师工作。拟议的跨学科课程，重点是工程系统和工程设计，包括理论和方法的研究，开发开放式工程设计问题的创造性解决方案。该专业的毕业生被称为工程系统与设计，他们将使用现代设计方法、模拟、分析和优化技术，为复杂的跨学科设计问题开发安全和功能性的解决方案，同时遵守涉及经济、可靠性、耐用性、美学、伦理和社会影响（包括法律和环境问题）的限制。工程系统设计项目中增加的灵活性将吸引大量对要求严格的传统工程项目不感兴趣的聪明学生。该计划还将满足行业对基础广泛的产品和系统设计师日益增长的需求，这些设计师能够立即在机电一体化、纳米系统和生物工程等跨学科工程领域工作。

PROPOSAL NO.: 0230088PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR: Stone, RobertINSTITUTION NAME: University of Missouri-RollaTITLE: Striking a Balance between Engineering Science and Engineering Design: Development of an Engineering Systems and Design ProgramAbstractThe goal of this project is to develop an undergraduate engineering curriculum that prepares students to work as design engineers at the boundaries of two or more traditional engineering disciplines. The proposed interdisciplinary program, focusing on engineering systems and engineering design, encompasses the study of theories and methodologies that develop creative solutions to open-ended engineering design problems. Graduates of this program, called Engineering Systems and Design, will use modern design methodologies,simulation, analysis and optimization techniques to develop safe and functional solutions to complex interdisciplinary design problems while adhering to constraints involving economics, reliability, durability, aesthetics, ethics and social impact (including legal and environmental issues).The increased flexibility incorporated in the Engineering System Design program will appeal to a large number of bright students who are not interested intraditional engineering programs with rigid requirements. The program will also meet increasing industry demands for broad-based product and systems designers capable of immediately working in interdisciplinary engineering areas such as mechatronics, nanosystems and bioengineering.
