Ders Tanımları

It is realized in an industrial corporation which conducts “Design, Research & Development and organizational” activities in its structure for minimum 20 workdays during summer vacation. Students also observe organizational functioning and management activities in the corporation and report the performed activities according to a format determined by Mechanical Engineering Department. The language of the report is Turkish and it is English for foreign students and/or the activities performed abroad. (This is a “Pass/Fail” type of activity and achievement will not be evaluated by letter grades.)

under construction

The objective in this project is to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. It is a decision-making process (often iterative), in which the basic science and mathematics and engineering sciences are applied to convert resources optimally to meet a stated objective. Among the fundamental elements of the design process are the establishment of objectives and criteria, synthesis, analysis, construction, testing and evaluation. The Project must also include the most of the following features: • Development of student creativity,• Use of open-ended problems, • Development and use of modern design theory and methodology,• Formulation of design problem statements and specification,• Consideration of alternative solutions,• Feasibility considerations, production processes, Further it is essential to include a variety of realistic constraints, such as economic factors, safety, reliability, aesthetics, ethics and social impact. The information about innovation, enterpreneurship, sustainable developent, engineering standards and intellectual property is also given in lectures.
