IDE Students have the opportunity to take hands-on, design-based versions of the traditional courses offered through various CEAS departments.
Both versions of these courses cover the same material, but IDE versions are taught by our faculty and include hands-on design, where students get to put theory into practice and learn by doing.
Through these unique classroom experiences, students gain valuable engineering skills including:
- communication
- teamwork
- understanding of the engineering design process
- experience with a variety of computer tools such as spreadsheets, dynamic modeling software, computer-aided design (CAD), etc.
