MAE 189A -- Initiate your Design

INITIATE YOUR DESIGN -- MAE 189A

During this quarter you should:

  • Review the steps in the design process (some additional links are provided at the design process page)

  • Develop a specification sheet (see the example) to define the scope of your project; it is against these specifications that the final project will be measured

  • Begin a Project Binder - this binder is THE defining document for your project; IT SHOULD BE KEPT UP-TO-DATE!
     
  • Arrange regular meetings with your Project Advisor and any outside consultants


  • Document weekly progress to the Project Binder; ideally the progress will be a listing of completed action items from the prior weeks meetings.  Be sure to document  which group member is responsible for completing the tasks.
