problems reaching substantiated conclusions using first principles of mathematics,
natural sciences, and engineering sciences.
3. Design solutions for complex engineering problems and design system components or
processes that meet the specified needs with appropriate consideration for the public
health and safety, and the cultural, societal, and environmental considerations.
4. Use research-based knowledge and research methods including design of experiments,
analysis and interpretation of data, and synthesis of the information to provide valid
conclusions.
5. Create, select, and apply appropriate techniques, resources, and modern engineering
and IT tools including prediction and modeling to complex engineering activities with
an understanding of the limitations.
6. Apply reasoning informed by the contextual knowledge to assess societal, health,
safety, legal and cultural issues, and the consequent responsibilities relevant to the
professional engineering practice.
