In phase I of the capstone project, students focus on identifying and planning for a project that is to be fully executed in phase II. Students use their knowledge obtained from the program to research and select a project, generate a project management plan, and initiate the design process. In addition to technical design criteria and considerations, students will need to recognize and incorporate additional critical factors (e.g., professional and ethical, social, economic, sustainability) throughout the planning and design processes.
