It is tempting for a company to suggest a design project when, in fact, what theywant are specific answers to some analysis problem. In these cases the students just do what they retold and do not benefit from experiencing the design process.* Is there opportunity for student management of the project?

Engineers aid in this by performingtechnical forecasting -- what new products will be made possible by technology advances? Theyalso have a role by performing s-curve analysis. This is applying the life cycle curve to forecastreplacement of a product by another, e.g., fountain pens by ball point pens. Various marketresearch techniques are applied to gauge the likelihood of market acceptance, and cost estimatesof product engineering are made.
