This is a team-based industry project course where collaborative teams of Supply Chain Engineering and Supply Chain Management students are paired with a company or organization. Each company or organization provides the team with a supply chain related problem of importance. Student teams are co-advised by Engineering and Business faculty who have direct contact with the company. The faculty co-advisers will mentor and guide each team to work together collaboratively to propose solutions for a real-world supply chain problem with an industry partner.

Explores the structure and function of the human body to facilitate understanding of the body's interface with product design. Bone, muscle, neural, circulatory, and digestive systems will be studied and considered with respect to product design-oriented tasks such as mobility, seating, physical tasks, digital and electronic interactions, etc.

Colloquium of speakers addressing a broad array of topics in the humanities and the sciences that set up design problems for discussion. Emphasis is in the role and opportunity of design in society. Student response, continued discussion, expected within the respective studio work.

This is a course designed to students pursuing a certification in Athletic Training or similar professional license in health care professions that focuses on the concepts related to the administration of athletic training programs including legal aspects and regulation of clinical practice, department and personnel management, budgeting, medical records management, risk management planning, facility design, development of referral programs and basic program outcome assessment methods.

A survey of current materials, processes, techniques and equipment used in the design of products for mass production. A significant portion of the design process is devoted to manufacturing questions - how materials are selected, shaped, and then assembled. Structure, properties and function of metals, polymers, ceramics, and biological materials will be covered. This course will include field visits to manufacturing facilities.

This course is supplemental to PRD 320 Product Design Studio III and discusses advanced concepts of ergonomics with respect to product design. Students will create 2D and 3D studies of situations requiring a diagrammatic understanding of human factors and ergonomic issues. Students will learn how to conduct a range of usability tests to evaluate and improve ergonomic conditions. Projects from PRD 321 and other studio courses within the College of Design will serve as case studies for analysis and application of course content.

This course is supplemental to PRD 321 Product Design Studio III and introduces principles and methodologies of user interface and interaction design as critical elements of user experience design. Students will create interaction diagrams and develop prototypes for products and/or services. Students will learn and apply principles of visual communication, typography and motion design to create visually appealing, intuitive and feedback-based user interfaces. Students will learn how to conduct a range of usability tests to evaluate and improve interface designs.

This course focuses on the relationship between design and entrepreneurship: exploring basic business vocabulary and how design vocabulary and design processes overlap, complement and enhance business operations and opportunities, interact with new venture funding partners, and business plan design and preparation.

This course focuses on the fundamental tools of Solidworks (the industry standard CAD software for product design). Students will learn and practice using all methods of rapid representation available in the College of Design (fused deposition modeling (FDM), Objet, starch and CNC) and methods of prototype creation with vendors outside the College. Exercises and projects focus on workflow, basic rendering and drawings to make simple multi-part objects.
