Fall 2025 Laboratory Lecture Departmental CreditUpper DivisionStudents transform their product/process design proposal created in the proposal design course into a requirements-driven, functional product. During design, they employ rigorous R&D criteria and metrics, global quality, safety, and other industry-based standards, tracking and reporting project development using Technology Readiness Level criteria. For deployment and test phases they incorporate human subject certification, protocols, and develop user-test measures using quantitative and qualitative analysis. The course deliverable is a final written report and functional project demonstration/presentation.
