  1. ABET1 SAYS - Your Senior Design Course Should Include Engineering design is the process of devising a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. It is a decision making process (often iterative), in which the basic sciences, mathematics, and engineering sciences are applied to convert resources optimally to meet a stated objective. Among the fundamental elements of the design process are the establishment of objectives and criteria, synthesis, analysis, construction, testing and evaluation. The engineering design component of a curriculum must include some of the following features: development of student creativity, use of open ended problems, development and use of design methodology, formation of design problem statements and specifications, consideration of alternative solutions, feasibility considerations, and detailed system descriptions. Further, it is essential to include a variety of realistic constraints such as economic factors, safety, reliability, aesthetics, ethics, and social impact. Courses that contain engineering design normally are taught at the upper diversion level of the engineering program. Some portion of this requirement must be satisfied by at least one course which is primarily design, preferably at the senior level, and draws upon previous coursework in the relevant discipline. Why would ABET develop this definition? - It’s the Real World Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. Annual Report for the year ending September 30, 1998, New York, 1988.
