This course will examine the key elements of product design and development from the inception of a concept through testing and iteration. The concepts behind modern product development will set the foundation for the appropriate use of electronics, robotics, computer numerical control (CNC) machines, computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM). Quality control and precision measurement will become critical components of the student’s projects. Elements of product sustainability, and the principles of business, entrepreneurship, and global design will be incorporated into the projects. Students will demonstrate mastery of content and process by completing long-term projects and presenting the results. Students will be expected to share project results electronically and during public presentations with peers, teachers, and community professionals. This course will prepare all students for future STEM careers and university programs.
