When you have an up and coming engineering product designer in the family who asks for help, you have to respond...
I have a year 12 student studying an A level in Product Design (alongside Maths and Physics) in Faversham, Kent. As part of that A level, she needs to undertake an independent design project and for this she is looking for companies or individuals who can be the end-client for a design and build solution, between now and Easter 2020.
The key criteria for the company and individual to be the client are:
- Wants to be able to support this person in her work as she progresses towards Engineering Product Design as a career.
- Needs to be a real problem for the client
- Will result in a physical solution to be designed and made by the student
- Client needs to be within reasonable travel time of Faversham, Kent (we can assess that) and/or the client needs to be able to have Skype or similar for meetings
- Client needs to be able to work with her on a moderately regular basis - more regular as the specifications are defined and the solution starts to be developed, less regular as the solution approaches completion (a short review/discussion every couple of weeks)
- Client needs to be able to provide feedback as the design solution progresses through potential solutions/prototypes
- Client needs to be able to help with final evaluation of the designed solution
- No payment is required, no costs to cover
If anyone is able to help or even think it might be possible to help, please drop me a line to discuss.
