Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 1 hour |
Laboratory: 3 hours |
Homework: 3 hours |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 60 hours |
Course Description: Products are designed to be used in expected ways by their users, and products also work in particular ways in order to provide the functions that users want. Students will be developing product concepts that will improve a product’s usage and the intrinsic organization or mapping of its functions. |
570-476-DW | Design Studio IV Support | | |
Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 1 hour |
Laboratory: 3 hours |
Homework: 3 hours |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 60 hours |
Course Description: This course is designed to further develop students’ knowledge of part design and specifications, and to use or develop appropriate technical solutions in order to validate the feasibility of the design concepts created in Design Studio 4. |
570-479-DW | Product Design Semantics | | |
Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 2 hours |
Laboratory: 1 hour |
Homework: 1 hour |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 45 hours |
Course Description: This course develops an understanding of product semantics through the evaluation of formal characteristics, aesthetic values, product architecture, and user/product activity observations. |
570-47A-DW | Prototyping IV | | |
Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 1 hour |
Laboratory: 2 hours |
Homework: 1 hour |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 45 hours |
Course Description: Students will undertake the prototyping of their design studio projects. They will learn to safely and accurately operate workshop machinery and power tools and to understand the importance of project planning and accurate technical documentation. |
570-47B-DW | Presentation Layout IV | | |
Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 1 hour |
Laboratory: 2 hours |
Homework: 2 hours |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 45 hours |
Course Description: Students will learn to produce 3D computer renderings with realistic lighting, shadows, and material appearances, and to generate visual presentation material for their design studio projects. |
570-47D-DW | 3D Computer Modeling IV | | |
Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 1 hour |
Laboratory: 3 hours |
Homework: 1 hour |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 60 hours |
Course Description: In order to keep a product design project on schedule, students will learn how to effectively manage their time while working on the same project in a team. New software tools will be introduced while they develop a teamwork system using the 3D software application. Students will also be introduced to file management (PDM), the production of technical documentation such as the tech pack, E-drawings, and specific technical drawings. Another interesting and relevant application of the software will be the exploration of the simulation module which will allow for virtual product design concept analysis in conjunction with the corresponding physical model to be built with the program’s rapid prototyping equipment. Students will be able to ‘reverse analyze’ their built concepts using the laser scanner and thereby subsequently adjust their design concepts. The course will support one project’s development from Design Studio IV and Technical Design Studio IV. |
570-47E-DW | Product Ergonomics | | |
Language of instruction: English
Course hours per week:
Classroom: 1 hour |
Laboratory: 2 hours |
Homework: 2 hours |
Total contact hours per semester (15-weeks): 45 hours |
Course Description: Products need to be designed so that they are comfortable for people to use them. During this course, students will learn how to analyze the ergonomic and anthropometric needs of product usage within a specific environment. This will be accomplished with the application of research, creative design problem solving and also with an emphasis on anthropometrical data research and testing as applied to the development process of their simultaneous design studio projects (PBL). Students will gain knowledge in the application of both qualitative and quantitative data during the product design process. |
