APSC_O 169 (3) Fundamentals of Sustainable
Engineering Design EXAM TIPS FOR December
preparation University of British Columbia,
Okanagan

,Identify two statements from the list below that most strongly differentiate
engineering design from other engineering activities such as conducting an
experiment or solving an equation.



1. Design problems tend to have many possible solutions

2. Design typically requires greater knowledge of engineering fundamentals

3. Design problems produce physical artifacts as outcomes

4. Design is typically done in teams; other engineering activities are not

5. Design typically requires more iteration - answer 1/5



Which of the following statement about the design process is most correct?



1. If you iterate from stage X to stage Y, the next step is to return to stage X

2. Earlier stages should be revisited as necessary to meet design objectives

3. Iteration involves passing through the entire process again

4. Each stage in the process should only be visited once

5. If an acceptable solution is not found, the process restarts at the beginning -
answer 2



What are the three stages in the APSC169 Design Cycle? - answer Identify, Invent,
Implement

, When is the Design Cycle done? - answer Never, but must choose to stop iteration
to bring new technology into being



Use the following brief to assist you in answering the question about the
affordable housing project:

A group of UBCO engineering students has gone to the Provost's office with the
following problem: Finding affordable housing that is close to campus is becoming
increasingly difficult. There is not enough on-campus housing to meet the needs
of the growing UBCO engineering student population. Off-campus housing is
currently either very expensive if it is close to campus or requires long commutes
for more affordable housing options. The Provost's Office has emphasized the
importance of solving this need for UBCO engineering students and has enlisted
your team to develop a solution by September 2023. Your team has done some
research and to meet the needs of the population, housing options must be less
than a 20-minute commute by either foot, bike, or public transit and must cost
less than $1,500.00 per month.

Based on t - answer 4



The need statement for a student housing problem is: "A way to address the lack
of affordable housing close to campus for all UBCO students."

Project requirements were formulated for this need. For the project requirement:
"Minimize commute time by foot, bike, or public transit (measured in minutes)."
Would this be a Function, Objective, or Constraint? - answer Objective



All design problems are well-defined.

True or False? - answer False
