ME 365: Making Multiples: Sand Casting
ME 365 is a product realization based course integrating designing and making with a focus on a scaled manufacturing process, sand casting. It's graduates will develop technical knowledge regarding design principles, tooling design and creation, mold making, and process parameters. This goal will be achieved by a sequence of three hands-on design and manufacturing projects, supported by lectures, curricular materials, and structured laboratories, and portfolio generation. Prerequisites:
ME203,
ME318, OR consent of instructor.
Last offered: Spring 2020
ME 366: Light and Plasma (PHOTON 366)
An introduction to the science and applications of laser-plasma interactions. The first part of the course will discuss the fundamental concepts and analytic, computational, and experimental tools for understanding the linear and nonlinear propagation of light in plasma, including dispersion relations, ionization and absorption mechanisms, stimulated scattering and light-driven waves, and relativistic optics. The second part of the course will use these tools to understand a variety of existing and under-development applications of laser-plasma interactions and high-power beams, including EUV lithography, laser diagnostics, directed energy, laser-wakefield accelerators, laboratory astrophysics, and inertial confinement fusion.Previous coursework in plasma physics, optics, or electromagnetism, or discussion with the instructor, is recommended.

ME 368: Leadership Lab (DESIGN 368, MS&E 489)
The Leadership Lab (previously known as d.Leadership) is a one-of-a-kind hands-on leadership course. This course bridges leadership research and principles with real-world application, offering a unique opportunity to grasp not only the theory but also the practical application of leadership. Real Application: Embrace a dynamic learning environment where theory meets practice. You will apply a wide range of leadership capabilities and skills within real, live teams and environments - all with instruction along the way. Experiment with your Leadership Style: We believe your leadership style is something you must prototype and iterate throughout your life. This course creates a safe environment where you can practice new leadership techniques without worrying about your reputation or next performance review in a real work environment. As you practice new techniques, you will undoubtedly experience highs and lows and most importantly refine your own leadership point of view. Key Topic Are

As you practice new techniques, you will undoubtedly experience highs and lows and most importantly refine your own leadership point of view. Key Topic Areas: Leveraging Failure and Learning to Pivot; Leading with Influence in the Absence of Authority; Framing Projects with Purpose in Order to Drive Momentum; and Subtracting Friction in Organizational Change. By the end of this course, you will have enhanced and transformed your leadership capabilities, found your natural strengths, enhanced them, and explored new horizons. Join us and experience a leadership journey that is both inspiring and hands-on. Preference to graduate students and students who have previously taken MS&E 280 or equivalent (not a prerequisite).

ME 368A: Biodesign Innovation: Needs Finding and Concept Creation (BIOE 374A, MED 272A)
In this two-quarter course series (
BIOE 374A/B,
MED 272A/B,
ME 368A/B,
OIT 384/5), multidisciplinary student teams identify real-world unmet healthcare needs, invent new health technologies to address them, and plan for their implementation into patient care. During the first quarter (winter), students select and characterize an important unmet healthcare problem, validate it through primary interviews and secondary research, and then brainstorm and screen initial technology-based solutions. In the second quarter (spring), teams select a lead solution and move it toward the market through prototyping, technical re-risking, strategies to address healthcare-specific requirements (regulation, reimbursement), and business planning. Final presentations in winter and spring are made to a panel of prominent health technology experts and/or investors. Class sessions include faculty-led instruction and case studies, coaching sessions by industry specialists, expert guest lecturers, and int
