System engineering, team project involving conception, design specifications, conceptual design, scheduling, project management, business plan, market survey, and budgeting that culminates in a written proposal and oral presentation requesting funds for development of a product.

 

What is expected of You

 

First and foremost, professional work is the norm in this course.  All of your written work and your conduct in class are to be at the level of one who is studying a profession—the profession of engineering.  This means a number of things:

 

1.    Your work is neatly done in a professional manner.

2.    Your work is honestly done.  You are encouraged to discuss course material with classmates to help each other understand and assimilate the concepts.  Nevertheless, I distinguish between helping someone understand concepts and providing them with specific answers.  I expect you’ll work individually on homework and assignments without coping others’ work.

3.    Your work is done on time.

 

Grading

 

Grades will be assigned at the end of the quarter based on the grade weights and grading scale shown below:

Attendance: All students are expected to attend all lectures and meetings.

 

All students are REQUIRED to perform all work. Work missed due to unauthorized absence may not be made-up. Work missed due to authorized absence will be made-up by the grade on the Final Proposal and Oral Presentation.

 

Honor Code: Assignments and Homework must be the student's own work. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in an automatic course failure for all parties concerned and a recommendation for further disciplinary action. While students are encouraged to study together and to consult with one another, the work submitted should be the student’s own.

 

Assignments: A 100% per day penalty is applied to late assignments. Getting help and working in groups are encouraged. The work submitted, however, should be the student’s own work.
