Title: Choose the optimal solution to a design problem based on constraints and original identified solutions.
Course: Engineering Practicum IV (21047) > Section: Designing a Practicum Project

Choice should be determined by

- cost
- duration of construction/project
- impacts of the solution
- plausibility
- ethics.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What are trade-offs?
- How do trade-offs affect the decision-making process?
- What is the definition of optimal solution?
- Why is a decision matrix important during the decision-making process?
