This is the first course in a two course sequence that covers engineering design and development concepts. In this capstone course, students work in teams to design and construct solutions to engineering problems. Emphasis will be placed on research methods, design problem statements, continuous improvement, cost analysis, and prototyping. Knowledge gained will be applied to a design solution of a problem assigned in the capstone project.

Note: The two-course sequence Engineering Technology 18A and ETEC 18B is the same as ETEC 18
