Academic Unit: The Iby and Aladar Fleischman Faculty of Engineering - Mechanical Engineering
Lecturers: Prof. Y. Reich, Dr. H.D. Haustein, Mr. D. Berko
Short Course Description
Given a broad technical problem statement, define the problem, develop requirements and design a product that addresses it. The scope of the project is 400 hours for each student. Projects could be performed by teams of two. In larger projects, each group of two students is assigned its own responsibility. Building of prototypes is highly encouraged. Each team is mentored by an experienced engineer.
