1. Product Design Program (w/ Fine Arts Dept.) Robotics and computers in mechanical design Team-based design with industrial projects Smart Product Design Course Design for Manufacturability The Design Division has been partnering with industry in project-based courses for over 25 years MEMS and Mechatronics RPL SLL 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000

2. Project courses with industry partners • ME113 Undergraduate design course with industrial projects • ME210/310 Graduate design course with industrial projects • ME217 Graduate DFM course with industrial projects • ME218 Graduate Smart Product design course (218d with industrial projects) For a summary of these and other courses outside of Mechanical Engineering, visit theSIMA industry-sponsored project course page

3. ME210 Goals & Approach • goal: • Develop global design-development team LEADERSprepared for a life-long odyssey in creative engineering design that is both pragmatic and intellectually informed. • given: • Few incoming students have real, complete, engineering product design experience. Fewer have been encouraged to examine the intellectual foundations of design. • approach: • Corporate partners drive technical learning and motivate product development; • the instructional team oversees process-management and intellectual skill development-learning; • technology is used to accelerate the learning curve. M.R. Cutkosky, Stanford University

4. Project-based learning I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius • Me210 is about forming and running creative, productive, engineering design teams. • It is also about “the Design Division philosophy” of engineering design. • It is the quintessential project-based learning (PBL) course: • see and hear • do and experience • reflect and introspect • document for the future M.R. Cutkosky, Stanford University

5. Students The greater Stanford community & friends of the Design Division The ME210 learning community Coaches and alumni Teaching team Community knowledge Corporate liaisons M.R. Cutkosky, Stanford University

17. ME210/310 Design Document templates • Captures the process that lead to your design. • What is the need that your design addresses? • What are the requirements behind your design? • What was your design approach - what alternatives did you consider, how did you evaluate them? • What are the specifications of your design? • What are the lessons learned from the process?
