Title: Evaluate potential solutions.
Course: Engineering Practicum IV (21047) > Section: Designing a Practicum Project

Potential solutions should be evaluated for feasibility, including evaluation of

- necessary research and development
- capital required
- labor required to produce
- utilities required
- power/water required
- waste discharged
- hazardous materials involved, if applicable
- exhaust emitted
- market need/capacity
- cost vs. benefit
- time to market
- potential competition.

Process/Skill Questions:

- How does the feasibility study affect the decision-making process for producing the solution?
- Will the benefits outweigh the costs?
- How is green engineering accounted for in this process?
