Engineering design is the communication of a set of rational decisions obtained with creative problem solving for achieving certain stated objectives within prescribed constraints. Engineering design is a systematic and cognitive process. The methods faculty choose to teach engineering design relate to the skills and competencies they want their students to develop. Design competencies help one define educational outcomes, develop plans for achieving integrated design experience, and document educational program success. Categories of design competencies include: information gathering, problem definition, idea generation, evaluation and decision making, implementation, communication, teamwork, and process improvement.
