Preparing students for capstone design [Senior Design]

The senior capstone design course is the culmination of the previous three years of the undergraduate curriculum. The goal of this course is to develop students´ communication (oral and written), interpersonal, teamwork, analytical, design, and project management skills through a team-based design experience. Students learn about the product-development process and gain experience solving open-ended problems. Capstone design courses give students insight into what it is like to work as an engineer.
