Design Thinking for Engineering

A practical guide  

Edited by Iñigo Cuiñas, Manuel J. Fernández Iglesias

The core of engineering learning is the ability to solve problems in specific fields; thus, engineering courses emerge as places where design thinking is a useful tool in training future engineers.

Design Thinking for Engineering: A practical guide provides support for master's level courses based on design thinking, as well as describing the experience of applying this approach to related and different branches of engineering. The book takes the reader through the various stages of design thinking and gives case studies and tools for readers to use to practice.

The chapter contributors have all participated in educational projects in cooperation with the editors, and this collaborative approach is extended through discussions to real world experiences and projects.

The book targets advanced engineering students will gain insight to applied design thinking approaches that will be invaluable in their progression towards a successful engineering career. Engineers and students in a wide range of fields, including mechanical, electronic, aerospace, telecommunication, computer science, amongst others, and their relevant product and device designs.
