Since thedesign process course in our engineering school heavily emphasizes involving the students inhands-on learning activities, it helps them to understand the theoretical rationales behind theengineering design process. Our engineering students are introduced to the concepts of reverseengineering through a series of hands-on experiences of real-world products.
