Abstract
The paper deals with the introduction of creative engineering design education in School of Mechanical Engineering, Yonsei University. The course is referred to as Creative Mechanical Engineering Design (1) for 2nd-year undergraduates who newly enter a major in mechanical engineering. This course emphasizes creative thinking and practical experiences to students by learning engineering design skills, realizing their idea through problem based learning (PBL) and design project and recognizing actual results of a product. The paper describes course contents, and discusses students’ responses to lecture, PBL and design projects.
