I/UCRC: Center for e-Design: IT Enabled Design and Realization of Products and Systems

韦恩州立大学（WSU）;金韦恩州立大学（WSU）建议加入现有的电子设计中心，该中心目前由爱荷华州（牵头）、弗吉尼亚理工大学、杨百翰大学、马萨诸塞州大学和布法罗大学组成。该中心的使命是创建新的工具、流程和方法，以帮助以更低的成本生产更高质量的产品。韦恩州团队补充了现有大学合作伙伴在四个研究重点领域的专业知识。建议的网站相关，基础研究包括语义产品设计和基础设施，设计融合的创新工具，虚拟仿真和人机界面工具。此外，韦恩州立大学的团队在设计、替代和可再生能源技术设计和优化以及STEM教育方面的文化和人类学研究方面拥有丰富的专业知识。韦恩州立大学的参与可以帮助发展电子设计中心的研究，以更好地满足当前和新兴的工业和社会需求。韦恩州立大学带来了来自多元化跨学科团队的专业知识，该团队来自大学内学术学院的多个部门。韦恩州立电子设计中心的网站研究将被整合到更广泛的研究生和本科生教育工作中，以加强学生的发展和准备。研究将融入现有的教育课程，从而丰富课程内容和学生的学习经验：设计过程和解决问题，工程设计决策，先进的设计理论和计算问题，IT和知识工程设计，以及全球产品开发。韦恩州立大学为研究生和本科生提供了优秀的行业驱动的实习机会。拟议的地点计划在中心内保持高度多样性的政策，包括继续建立伙伴关系和招募少数民族和妇女研究生和本科生。

1338780 Wayne State University (WSU); Kim Wayne State University (WSU) proposes to join the existing Center for e-Design that is currently comprised of Iowa State (lead), Virginia Tech, Brigham Young University, the University of Massachusetts, and the University of Buffalo. The mission of the center is to create new tools, processes, and methodologies that will assist in generating higher quality products at lower costs. Wayne States team complements the existing university partners' expertise in the four research thrust areas. The proposed sites relevant, fundamental research includes semantic product design and infrastructure, innovation tools for design fusion, virtual simulation, and human-machine interface tools. Furthermore, Wayne State's team has significant expertise in cultural and anthropological research in design, alternative and renewable energy technology design and optimization, and STEM education. Wayne State's participation can help grow the e-Design centers research to better meet both current and emerging industrial and social needs. Wayne State brings expertise from a diverse interdisciplinary team that draws from multiple departments across academic schools within the university. Site research from Wayne State's Center for e-Design will be integrated into its broader graduate and undergraduate educational endeavors to enhance students' development and preparation. Research will be integrated into existing educational curriculum, thereby enriching course content and student learning experiences in: design process and problem solving, decision making in engineering design, advanced design theory and computational issues, IT and knowledge engineering for design, and global product development. Wayne State provides excellent industry-driven internship opportunities to its graduate and undergraduate students. The proposed site plans to maintain a policy of strong diversity within the Center, including continued partnership and recruitment of minority and women graduate and undergraduate students.
