English abstract:
This paper describes a new higher education course "Integrative Product Creation" in the bachelor curriculum of mechanical and industrial engineering and its implementation in the TU Wien Learning and Innovation Factory (LIF). LIF is a faculty-wide cooperation of three institutes combining engineering design, production technology, and industrial engineering aspects. This new didactic approach has an integrated teaching concept with a real product "slotcar" and real processes. The aim of this program is to practice the complete generation of a slotcar from product conception to serial production. The paper presents also the practice oriented learning in the design education regarding the design for X approaches especially applying DFMA (Design for Manufacturability and Assembly). The paper reviews experiences and analyses students work during their practical training to understand the transference of engineering-based knowledge into design practice.
