AB  -             Reverse Engineering as a Learning Tool in Design ProcessAbstractTo include an element of practice in engineering design course, reverse engineeringactivity in form of a project could enhance engineering students learning experiencethrough tear down of an existing product or device. This activity helps the student learnthe principles behind the design of the product under study, uncover inner workings ofthe device, as well as ways to redesign and improve the performance of the system.As part of the curriculum in mechanical engineering, teaching engineering designprocess at junior level is vital in preparing students for their senior capstone designprojects, as well as, working for workforce later in their engineering career. Reverseengineering can well be integrated into the design process course in form of groupproject activities.In the body of this paper, a preliminary reverse-engineering design methodology ispresented followed by case studies in which students take an exciting product to applyreverse engineering technique to learn the design process behind the product. Thecase studies are presented on reverse engineering projects performed by mechanicalengineering students. Their learning experiences, as well as, the challenges on tryingto come up with conceptual ideas to improve the existing product based on their studiesare presented.
