Select one of the options below:
Focused on the appropriate application of “patterns for patenting” together with intuition, inspiration, and cross-disciplinary connecting. De-mystify “inventing” as applied to science, engineering and technology. Credit not allowed for both 525 and 423.
Course Objectives:
Engineers and scientists are on the forefront of invention and generating valuable intellectual property for their employers. This course not only trains student to produce such inventive materials, but also explores how the different sciences and engineering disciplines connect. This course focuses on the appropriate application of "patterns of patenting" together with intuition, inspiration, and de-mystifying as applied to science, engineering, and technology.
Successful students will learn to:
• Evaluate the "patterns of patenting" and how to use them to enhance creativity
• Analyze linkages among different sciences and engineering disciplines
• Demonstrate ability to write a patent filing
• Understand the different types of intellectual properties created during product development
Junior standing.. Credit not allowed for both ENGR 525 and ENGR 423
