© American Society for Engineering Education, 2022 Powered by www.slayte.com Using Topology Optimization in an Undergraduate Classroom SettingAbstractTechnological advances have significantly reduced lead times in product design. One such ad-vancement is topology optimization (TO) which generates optimal designs to meet specific prod-uct specifications. TO is rapidly being adopted by the industry as many commercial computer-aided-design (CAD) platforms now provide in-built modules for TO. This necessitates training ofengineering workforce.In this paper, we discuss the results of a study carried out to quantify the impact of introducingTO to junior undergraduate mechanical engineering
