Successful completion of the challenge will not only involve following through the design process from a conceptual design to a product, but also emphasize non-technical aspects of engineering. The process will involve innovative thinking, the design process, sketching, hands-on creation, technical writing and oral communication. To address accessibility, the challenge could be designing for an individual who has limited ability. |
