2. Product Design Capstone Blaine Lilly | The Ohio State University | February 2013 The basic idea This capstone experience will be based on ME 5682, Product Design Engineering. During the first semester, you will be sitting in lecture with students taking 5682, taking the same exams, but you will work in separate lab sections, in groups of four. Students in 5682 will finish their product design at the end of the Autumn Semester – you will continue to refine your design through Spring Semester, in ME 5685.
