Institution:

Western New England University

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisite: ME 314; ME 311 or concurrently; ME 417 or concurrently; and senior standing. This is the last course in a three-course laboratory sequence. The experimental methodology and communication skills developed in ME 313 and ME 314 are reinforced and the engineering team approach is also used throughout the course. Each student, as a member of a team, experiences four distinct activities: the first is CAD/CAM manufacturing exercise; the second is a vibrations analysis; the third is in energy systems analysis; and the fourth is an interdisciplinary, semester-long team design project where team members work on a semester-long project under the guidance of a faculty project advisor. Technical writing and presentation skills are honed in preparation for the senior design project capstone course. The assessment is based upon the quality of both the writing and engineering content of the written reports and the oral presentation. One class hour, one three hour lab. 3 cr.
