goal: Develop global design-development team LEADERS
prepared for a life-long odyssey in creative engineering design that is both pragmatic and intellectually informed.
given: Few incoming students have real, complete, engineering
product design experience. Fewer have been encouraged to examine the intellectual foundations of design.
approach: Corporate partners drive technical learning and motivate
product development; the instructional team oversees process-management
and intellectual skill development-learning; technology is used to accelerate the learning curve.
ME210 Goals & Approach
04/20/23 M.R. Cutkosky, Stanford University
Project-based learning
I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.Confucius
•Me210 is about forming and running creative, productive, engineering design teams.
•It is also about “the Design Division philosophy” of engineering design.
•It is the quintessential project-based learning (PBL) course:
• see and hear• do and experience• reflect and introspect• document for the future

The ME210/310 Environment today
• Typical range of projects
• The design loft
• Tools (software, methodology)
• Electronic design archives
• Research connections (CDR)

“Typical” ME210/310 Projects
ME210industry sponsored projects for
distributed teams, Internet mediated design-development,
emphasis on hardware, theory and conceptual prototyping

Captures the process that lead to your design.
What is the need that your design addresses?
What are the requirements behind your design?
What was your design approach - what alternatives did you consider, how did you evaluate them?
What are the specifications of your design?
What are the lessons learned from the process?
