The goal of this Product Liability IQP is to learn the basic principles of product liability law to educate future engineers. Nine videos were watched and two books were read to gain an exemplary foundation on product liability law. After attaining this basis, three cases were reviewed and analyzed for causation. This project enhanced our knowledge on product safety and engineering principles.
