MAE 5260
Design for Manufacture and Assembly

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

Successful component and system design is dependent on the ability to specify products that balance cost, performance, and component robustness. This course will consider methods for design optimization that are driven by an attention to manufacturing and assembly processes while maintaining consideration for functional sensitivities.


Prerequisites equivalent CAD-based design course plus 2.5 years of engineering mathematics, including probability and statistics.

Enrollment Priority Enrollment limited to: M.Eng. or graduate students in MAE or permission of instructor.

Last 4 Terms Offered 2025SP, 2024SP, 2023SP, 2022SP

Outcomes

  • The student will be able to better understand the role of design engineers as related to industry.
