Students learn the engineering design process and use it to solve meaningful problems drawn from the community and around the world. Teams of students evaluate design requirements and construct innovative solutions in the Oshman Engineering Design Kitchen. Students develop teaming and communication skills. Only first year students may enroll. Non-first year students wishing to take introductory engineering design may enroll in EDES 220. EDES 120 does not fulfill the FWIS requirement or carry D3 credit. Cross-list: EDES 220.
