3.00 Credits
Many exciting research opportunities cross disciplinary lines. To participate in such projects, researchers must operate in multi-disciplinary teams. The Biorobotics Team Research course offers a unique capstone opportunity for undergraduate students to utilize skills they developed during their undergraduate experience while acquiring new teaming skills. A group of eight students form a research team under the direction of two faculty leaders. Team members are chosen from appropriate majors through interviews with the faculty. They will research a biological mechanism or principle and develop a robotic device that captures the actions of that mechanism. Although each student will cooperate on the team, they each have a specific role, and must develop a final paper that describes the research generated on their aspect of the project. Students meet for one class period per week and two 2-hour lab periods. Initially students brainstorm ideas and identify the project to be pursued. They then acquire biological data and generate robotic designs. Both are further developed during team meetings and reports. Final oral reports and a demonstration of the robotic device occur in week 15. Offered as BIOL 377, EMAE 377, BIOL 477, and EMAE 477.

3.00 Credits
This course will focus on advanced design and manufacturing technologies and systems, with an emphasis on the total product life cycle and the challenges of secure and efficient product data management. Topics will include: traditional and rapid subtractive and additive prototyping and manufacturing technologies, design for manufacture (DFM), control and quality assurance of the design and manufacturing process, manufacturing system integration, "Globalization," and sustainable engineering. The course will be project-based and laboratory sessions will take place in the Reinberger and think[box] studios. Prereq: EMAE 290.
