The Center for Engineering Design
Entrepreneurship
CEDE is a flexible facility for students to
develop their technical and professional skills
through design based learning. The Center
fosters collaboration between engineering and
business colleges in partnership with industry
to use the Center's facilities to design,
construct and test engineering solutions to
actual problems. The Center also supports
critical software tools, hardware, computer
networks, and data/audio/video conferencing
technologies for collaboration and design. The
facility staff made largely of undergraduate
students, support the faculty in meeting specific
needs for courses and programs, and maintain the
Center facilities. The facility is maintained
and supported largely by undergraduate students.
The resources available at CEDE and The Learning
Factory are coordinated for the mutual
enhancement of the hands-on learning experience.
CEDE is currently used by the Engineering
Entrepreneurship Education Program, first year
seminars, the Engineering Leadership and
Development Minor, the Women in Engineering
Program, the Minority Engineering Program, and
Engineering Design Graphics. We envision a
continual expansion of courses and programs from
within the college that will be using the
Center's facilities. CEDE is used for
- Nexus between business considerations and
engineering design - Developing engineering design from CAD to rapid
prototypes - Testing product capabilities
- Product dissection and analysis
- Team collaboration using voice, video, and data
with industry and international partners - Visualization and communication of design ideas
