9. Senior Design Projects are one academic year: August – May.
Under the guidance of a faculty member, student teams work with clients to develop client-defined products to be delivered at the end of the year.
Senior Design
Projects provide a way for team members to blossom and to demonstrate what they can do—which is often far more than their GPA might indicate.
Projects allow sponsors to get to know the student team members and to see them perform over an extended period.
The next few slides will walk through a typical project.
