Senior Design II

Catalog description

The course continues substantial design experience started in engineering senior design. This course requires students to work in small design teams to solve a significant engineering problem. Students develop, design, and implement a solution to the engineering problem in conjunction with a faculty advisor. The course reinforces principles of the engineering design process and serves as a capstone for engineering knowledge obtained in the engineering curriculum. The consideration of the ethical and social implications of technology and the basic concepts of business are also aspects of the course. Each student design team is expected to present information related to their project in both written and oral formats. Preliminary paper design is followed by implementation in the lab. It is expected that a complete or partially working system will be demonstrated at the end of the course.
