Design and Manufacturing
We are advancing the design process and developing new manufacturing methods to produce better products.
Our design faculty and students apply ergonomic and biomechanical principles to the design of many products. These principles take into account the varying shapes and sizes of the human body. Our manufacturing faculty and students are working closely with counterparts from across campus to implement precision and additive manufacturing for the production of cheaper, faster, and more accurate components.
