ME 207: Movie Design

Learn the ins and outs of high-speed filmmaking in the digital age; writing, directing, shooting, and editing. We¿ll do it through a rapid prototyping approach to filmmaking. Whether you have tons of experience or none, you¿ll leave with new tactics that will up your storytelling, filmmaking, and design chops simultaneously. These techniques are useful whether you plan to move to Hollywood or create a video for the web.n Project-based: students will design, write, shoot, edit, and screen a short film in the span of one week. It¿s going to be quick but intense, kind of like cross-fit for your storytelling and video creating muscles. You¿ll sweat a bit, but you¿ll feel confident afterwards. Students should be prepared to spend significant amount of out of class work-time creating movies: for one week + one weekend, see "Notes" for specific dates. Admission by application. See dschool.stanford.edu/classes for more information.

ME 208: Patent Law and Strategy for Innovators and Entrepreneurs (MS&E 278)

This course teaches the essentials for a startup to build a valuable patent portfolio and avoid a patent infringement lawsuit. Jeffrey Schox, who is the top recommended patent attorney for Y Combinator, built the patent portfolio for Twilio (IPO), Cruise ($1B acquisition), and 250 startups that have collectively raised over $2B in venture capital. This course is equally applicable to EE, CS, and Bioengineering students. For those students who are interested in a career in Patent Law, please note that this course is a prerequisite for ME238 Patent Prosecution.
Terms: Aut | Units: 2-3

ME 209: Imperfections in Crystalline Solids

To develop a basic quantitative understanding of the behavior of point, line and planar defects in crystalline solids. Particular attention is focused on those defects that control the thermodynamic, structural and mechanical properties of crystalline materials.
Terms: Aut, Sum | Units: 3
Instructors: Cai, W. (PI)

ME 210: Introduction to Mechatronics (EE 118)

Technologies involved in mechatronics (intelligent electro-mechanical systems), and techniques to apply this technology to mecatronic system design. Topics include: electronics (A/D, D/A converters, op-amps, filters, power devices); software program design, event-driven programming; hardware and DC stepper motors, solenoids, and robust sensing. Large, open-ended team project. Prerequisites: ENGR 40, CS 106, or equivalents.
Terms: Win | Units: 4

ME 211: ReMake: Design Lessons from Restoration

Focus is on the restoration of the 1962 Cadillac DeVille project car as a design investigation. Topics include: What makes a car a classic? How does this car express luxury, and how is that different from contemporary luxury products? What does the car say about the American identity, and how has that changed over the past half-century? Every student can expect to get their hands dirty; prior automotive experience is not required. Goal is to have the car operational again by the end of Autumn Quarter. Preference to early graduate and advanced undergraduate students. Enrollment limited to 15.
Last offered: Autumn 2012 | Repeatable for credit

ME 212: Calibrating the Instrument

For first-year graduate students in the Joint Program in Design. Means for calibrating the designer's mind/body instrument through tools including improvisation, brainstorming, creative imaging, educational kinesiology, and Brain Gym. Current design issues; guest speakers; shared stories; and goal setting.
Last offered: Autumn 2015

ME 215: From Maps to Meaning

One of the oldest visual tools created by humans to make sense of the complexities of our world, maps are unique in their ability to synthesize data, convey meaning through spatial logic, and deliver information at high resolution. They are also incredible tools for communication, data sorting and insight finding.n n This is an intensive, hands-on course that uses mapping techniques to navigate the intersection of data and design. Students will tackle three main projects and several shorter assignments over 10 weeks. Perfect attendance and completion of projects is absolutely mandatory. You will:n -collect, sort and organize quantitative and qualitative datan -create maps to synthesize complex informationn -use mapping as a tool to work on design problemsn -explore biases in map-makingn -create design interventions based on data and mapsn n While no specific prior experience is necessary, this class is for you if you are comfortable with the ambiguity of learning new skills on and off the computer, if you geek out about design and data, and if you are not intimidated by the idea of creating analog and digital maps. Admission by application. See dschool.stanford.edu/classes for more information.
