You need to choose a “cool” technology that is relevant to your engineering degree.
Examples:
Buying a Tesla
Upgrading from a gas furnace to a heat pump
Installing an assembly robot
Wind farm vs gas power plant
Create a PowerPoint presentation with the benefits and costs. Make the presentation visually appealing (i.e. use pictures, graphs, color, etc).
Outline of the presentation:
1) Name and engineering degree
2) Summary of upgrade
3) Identification of key factors in benefit/cost analysis
4) State key assumptions based on some research (these will be estimates)
5) Perform benefit/cost analysis
6) The final recommendation on performing the upgrade
7) The last slide should be your sources
The grade will be based on student's use of analysis, critical thinking, use of technology, communication methods, and engineering economics content.
