ENMA 6050:
Reliability, Failure Analysis, and Risk Assessment
Course Projects
Industry and business
sponsored student team projects form a core element of this course. These projects provide students with
first-hand real-world experience in applying the knowledge, tools, and
techniques described in course lectures.
Students will be assigned to
3-5 person teams, and will prepare semi-weekly deliverables due on the date
specified by the course
schedule. Deliverables will be
submitted to the associated D2L discussion forums for this course (for
instructions, go here).
There are two primary sources
of team projects:
A key to successful team
projects is identification of a particular individual who will act as the
sponsor for the project. The sponsor’s primary responsibilities are to provide
the team with “voice-of-the-customer” information, and to connect team members
with other individuals who can provide relevant information. For projects proposed by the course
instructor, the instructor will have identified the project sponsor. For projects proposed by a student, the
student must identify the sponsor. For
this case, the student may be the sponsor.
An outline of a “good” team project is provided here.
Deliverables should be
prepared as follows:
·
Teams should be
prepared to present their deliverables in class on the due dates.
·
All deliverables
should be submitted before 5:00 on the due date by depositing in the associated
D2L discussion section.
·
All deliverables
should contain no references to the name of the project sponsor, and should
contain no information that would allow the sponsor company to be
identified, unless specifically requested by the sponsor.
