    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Harold and Inge Marcus Department of Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering USING PRODUCT DISSECTION TO EXPOSE ENGINEERING STUDENTS TO CULTURAL ISSUES IN PRODUCT DESIGN A Thesis in Industrial Engineering by Kang Kang 2011 Kang Kang Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2011 ii The thesis of Kang Kang was reviewed and approved* by the following: Timothy W. Simpson Professor of Mechanical Engineering and Industrial Engineering Thesis Advisor Gül E. Okudan Kremer Associate Professor, Engineering Design and Industrial Engineering Paul Griffin Peter and Angela Dal Pezzo Department Head Chair Head of the Department of Industrial Engineering *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT With the growing use of product dissection for benchmarking purposes in industry and for engineering education purposes in academia, a systematic and practical dissection methodology and a model for dissection in education are needed. This work reviews and compares existing methodologies and based on that introduces an integrated product dissection methodology to assess product architecture and functionality. A case study is used to demonstrate the proposed methodology on two rice cookers, and cultural issues of rice cooker design are identified. With globalization becoming an important issue, bringing the concept of global and societal issues into engineering design education is essential. Inspired by the findings of the rice cooker dissection, an experiment is conducted to test the incorporation of rice cookers into product dissection activities in the Spring 2011 offering of ME240: Product Dissection at the Pennsylvania State University. The purpose of adding rice cookers to the appliances dissection section of the course is to expose students to the cultural issues of rice cooker design (e.g., product functions and features based on cooking and dietary needs).
