Course Goals / Objectives:
Develop as a team the strategy and tactics for the design of an experiment and for data analysis procedures to achieve experimental objectives, including detailed description of the necessary technical tasks
Formulate an experimental program and success criteria to obtain information for a particular problem
Implement as a team a detailed design for an experiment and for data analysis procedures necessary to achieve the objectives defined above
Effectively communicate orally and in writing the results of the project design process, and subsequently the key aspects of the overall project (from concept to end goal)
GE Reflection-Engag Citizens & Interculr Comp: Students consider public health, safety, and welfare as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors in applying engineering design to produce solutions meeting specified needs
GE Reflection - Personal and Professional Development: Students individually assess and pursue personal
professional growth in concert with project requirements and personal career goals
professional growth in concert with project requirements and personal career goals
GE Reflection - Cultivate Engineering Mindset: Students develop an engineering mindset that demonstrates constant
curiosity, makes connections between disparate bodies of information, and seeks opportunities to create value
curiosity, makes connections between disparate bodies of information, and seeks opportunities to create value

Additional Notes or Comments:
The lab component being added is an in class lab component. So one hour/per week is the lecture and one hour/per week is for the lab (roughly). The exact split is listed in the contact hours.
