Description

Introduction to Engineering Design is a pilot course started in the fall of 2024 at Delaware State University among freshmen majoring in engineering physics. This course is one of the several course modules being piloted before a major program revision can be implemented. The goal for this pilot introductory engineering course is to bring the hands-on engineering design experience to the freshmen class and prepare them with basic practical skills for future success in the program. Students will explore different engineering tracks in our program (electrical, biomedical and optical) and conduct hands-on team projects to get familiar with the tools used in engineering design. In addition, student will practice on problems solving, data analysis, lab report writing, and oral presentation.
