Abstract

This paper introduces IDEA-the Institute for Design Engineering and Applications. IDEA brings together a number of Northwestern University's existing undergraduate and graduate programs in engineering design and introduces two new programs: 1) a Certificate in Engineering Design that may be earned by any engineering undergraduate; and 2) a Bachelor's in Manufacturing and Design Engineering. We review a number of our guiding philosophies and give an overview of the two new programs.
