Ends Oct 25. Lecture: M EVE (7-9 PM) (32-141) Recitation: M EVE (9 PM) (32-123)
Introduces students to concepts of design thinking and innovation that can be applied to any engineering discipline. Focuses on introducing an iterative design process, a systems-thinking approach for stakeholder analysis, methods for articulating design concepts, methods for concept selection, and techniques for testing with users. Provides an opportunity for first-year students to explore product or system design and development, and to build their understanding of what it means to lead and coordinate projects in engineering design. Subject can count toward the 6-unit discovery-focused credit limit for first-year students. Enrollment limited to 25; priority to first-year students.

(, )
Engineering School-Wide Elective Subject.
(Offered under: 6.9110, 16.650)
(Subject meets with 6.9130[J], 16.667[J])
Prereq: None. Coreq: 6.9120; or permission of instructor
Units: 0-2-1
Lab: F9-11 (32-124) or F1-3 (32-124) or F3-5 (32-124)
Develops leadership, teamwork and communication skills by exposing students to leadership frameworks, models, and cases within an engineering context in an interactive, practice-based environment. Students are members of and lead teams, participate in guided reflections on individual and team successes, and discover opportunities for improvement in controlled settings. Experiential learning includes design-implement activities, role-play simulations, small group discussions, and performance and peer assessments by and of other students. Includes frequent engineering industry-guest participation. Content is frequently student-driven. First year Gordon Engineering Leadership Program (GEL) students register for 6.9110. Second year GEL Program students register for 6.9130. Preference to students enrolled in the Bernard M. Gordon-MIT Engineering Leadership Program.
