Integrating Technology and Design in Engineering Study Programs at Hochschule Wismar Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Until 1910: Everything was function, Design was making the piece beautiful (or it was not needed because the piece was beautiful) Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Until 1910: Everything was function, Design was making the piece beautiful 1920: Form follows function Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Until 1910: Everything was function, Design was making the piece beautiful 1920: Form follows function Nowadays: Everything is highly designed function Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Peter Goodhew indicated it in his presentation: In the times of invisible technique we do not more have the „beautiness of engineering effort“ Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Until today our cultures are coined by the „BAUHAUS“ or International Style. Most uf us think until the modern times : To be engaged in function is enough, Design is a direct result of functional acting. Designers can add our product the finishing touch, not more But this is wrong nowadays Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Today Design is not the logically, automatically result of engineering, Design is absolutely separated from the engineering effort. And instead: Design is more than in earlier times an integrated part of the product. Engineers have to find a new approach to the finished product. Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Engineers have to find the benefit of design as an equivalent benefit in the product. Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 And this is our program: All products, all engineering solutions are an integration from Technology Business Design Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 We are in the beginning. Only a few programs follow this goal. Most of them are integrating one or more design theory or design practice courses and a more or less integrated exchange of knowledge and/or persons between the faculty of design and the faculty of technology. Most of this programs are Master programs. But we intend to begin with the design integration in the first year of the bachelor ( the first design based project) Our goal is visible in the Master of Multimedia Technology in the Faculty of Engineering, department Electrical Engineering Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009

Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10. June 2009 Master of Engineering in Multimedia Technology 2-year program with a lot of contacts to Industry Compulsary courses in design practice – 15% Compulsary courses in special technologies – 15% Design based projects with team-teaching of Engineers and Designers – 40% Elective courses in Business, Design or Technology - 30% All projects have a design student as supervisor / tutor Most projects are Industry Projects a lot of the theses deliver a patent or a similar idea-protection Udo Onnen-Weber CDIO Conference 7. – 10.
