NOCTI Engineering Design Process

ALL solutions begin with identifying the need to solve some kind of problem.

​

Step 1

Identify a Need

This is typically referred to as identifying your criteria and constraints. This step also includes brainstorming a solution based on the criteria and constraints.

​

​Step 2

Define all of the parameters you have to work with.

​Once all things are considered, a solution is chosen to further develop

​

Select a proposed solution

Building a prototype s the most common way of implementing a solution. The prototype is then used to carry out testing on.

​

Step 4

Implementing the proposed solution

This is the RESULT of testing your solution, and in most cases involves communicating those finalized results to the public.

​

​Step 5

Evaluating Your Design Solution
