ABSTRACT
Engineering is purposeful and practical ingenuity employed in the service of mankind. Design is an iterative decision-making process of creation and optimization to completely and unambiguously fulfill some human need. Design is a sociotechnical activity that is open-ended; not a subject or coursework. Design projects can be tackled in many different ways and can vary depending on group dynamics, project goals, and existing content knowledge. The design task requires motivation and persistence that are shared by the individuals in the design team.
