SCI-MS.ETS1.01

MS (SCI) Engineering Design
Engineering Design [ETS1]

SCI-MS.ETS1.01 Define the criteria and constraints of a design problem with sufficient precision to ensure a successful solution, taking into account relevant scientific principles and potential impacts on people and the natural environment that may limit possible solutions.

Clarification Statement This standard may be integrated into any performance standard. Suggested ecological topics may include deforestation, overpopulation, water quality, air quality, erosion, toxic spills.
The more precisely a design task’s criteria and constraints can be defined, the more likely it is that the designed solution will be successful. Specification of constraints includes consideration of scientific principles and other relevant knowledge that are likely to limit possible solutions.
