Title: Explain the validity of designing alternative solutions to an engineering design problem.
Course: Engineering Analysis and Applications II (21016) > Section: Applying the Engineering Design Process

Explanation should include the

- reason multiple solutions are possible and encouraged
- benefits of exploring alternative solutions (one correct answer/process vs. multiple answers/processes).

Process/Skill Questions:

- What are the benefits of generating multiple solutions?
- What is brainstorming? What are its steps?
- How does one develop criteria and benchmarks for the engineering design problem?
