330: Introduction to Product Design for Entrepreneurs
Description
Designed to provide students with
an introduction to technology and the fundamentals of product design.
The product design life cycle is the main focus of the course. Subject
areas are presented to the student in the same sequence that an
entrepreneur might need when taking an idea for a technology-based
product and moving through the stages of development to a commercialized
product. Focus is on learning to identify a need, formulate a strategy
for satisfying that need, and design products or processes for eliminating
the need. Emphasis is placed on developing the skills necessary
to solve real-world technology-based design problems, to design
products, to work in teams, to make informed ethical decisions,
and to communicate through written and oral reports.
Prerequisites
This
course should be the first course taken by business students wishing
to complete the minor.
