Title: Identify the requirements and constraints of the design problem.
Course: Engineering Explorations I (21005-I) > Section: Examining the Engineering Design Process

Identification should include the specifications, constraints, and criteria of the problem—i.e., what the design must do to be considered a success, the resources required, and the availability or non-availability of all required resources.

Process/Skill Questions:

- How can one locate resources required to solve an engineering design problem?
- If resources are not available, what should one do?
- What are constraints?
- Why is all engineering design performed under constraints?
- What is the difference between a specification and a criterion?
