A concise and practical guide to succeeding in the undergraduate engineering capstone design project

In Engineering Capstone Design Project: Planning, Organizing, and Executing, a team of accomplished engineers delivers a practical guide for engineering students undertaking their capstone design project course in the final year of their bachelor program. It covers two aspects of the capstone course: planning and the design process. You'll explore how to organize your team, manage and develop your project, and communicate with clients, advisors, suppliers, and manufacturers. You'll also discover a detailed, step-by-step approach to the design process following the milestones and requirements of engineering capstone design courses.

The book focuses on the process of mechanical engineering design but also includes material covering electrical, chemical, biomedical, and control systems engineering design. It also offers several illustrative case studies of successful capstone design projects completed at McGill University.

Readers will also find:

• A thorough introduction to the principles of organization of capstone design courses, including learning attributes and grade attribution
• Comprehensive step-by-step instructions to the design process
• Useful case studies from academic, industrial, and McGill student design competition capstone projects
• Examples and anecdotes drawn from the authorial team's extensive professional and academic experience in engineering design and project advice

Perfect for undergraduate students taking the capstone mechanical engineering project course, Engineering Capstone Design Project: Planning, Organizing, and Executing will also benefit students of other engineering design courses seeking a clear, step-by-step approach to the design process.

Alexei Morozov, P.Eng., Ph.D., is an Academic Associate in the Faculty of Engineering at McGill University. He's a Design Engineer at the NSERC Chair in Design Engineering for Interdisciplinary Innovation of Medical Technologies in the Department of Mechanical Engineering. He has 40 years of experience working in R&D and advising in various innovative robotic, mechanical, and interdisciplinary engineering projects, and more than 20 years in teaching Design Graphics, Conceptual Design, Inter-Disciplinary Design, Capstone Design, and Hybrid and Electric Vehicles Drivetrain Design courses.

Rosaire Mongrain, P.Eng., Ph.D., is a full Professor of Mechanical Engineering at McGill University, Canadian NSERC chair in Design Engineering. His principal research aims at the design, development, and evaluation of medical devices using numerical and experimental methods. He has taught design courses including Conceptual Design, Machine Elements Design, Inter-Disciplinary Design, and the Capstone Course for more than 25 years.

Mark Driscoll, P.Eng., Ph.D., is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at McGill University, Canadian NSERC chair in Design Engineering, and Chwang-Seto Faculty Scholar. He is an experienced engineer, expert in spine biomechanics, with in-depth background in innovation and product development. He has successfully taken several novel medical devices to market in industrial and academic settings and shares this knowledge as a design curriculum professor.

Peter Radziszewski, P.Eng., Ph.D., former Associate Professor in engineering design at McGill University, pursued R&D and teaching activities in design and mineral processing. Joining Metso in 2012 as VP Solutions Offering Development, his conceptual design efforts encompassed mineral process equipment, wear, and consumables. 2021 saw him join Rampart Detection Systems as VP of Research & Innovation, where he worked on electric and magnetic field sensor applications in the mining industry.

Benoit Boulet, P.Eng., Ph.D., FCAE, is a full Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at McGill University, the Chwang-Seto Engine Faculty Scholar, and co-founding Director of the McGill Engine technological innovation centre. He currently serves as McGill's Associate Vice-President (Innovation and Partnerships). Professor Boulet is a former director and current member of McGill's Centre for Intelligent Machines where he heads the Intelligent Automation Laboratory.
