== Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship ==

=== Senior Design ===

Senior Design is a capstone design course for senior students in mechanical, ~~indistrial~~ industrial and systems, civil, computer, and electrical engineering. Students are required to complete a two-semester course sequence involving application of their theoretical knowledge to solve pressing real-world problems. Each project includes the development and use of design methodology, formulation of design problem statements and specifications, consideration of alternative solutions, feasibility considerations and detailed system descriptions. Projects include realistic constraints, such as economic factors, safety, reliability, maintenance, aesthetics, ethics, political and social impact. Students are expected to present orally their results in a series of design reviews. The students document their solutions using a written report that includes an executive summary. A working prototype or simulation of their solution, as appropriate, is required to complete the course.

Design projects enable our students to put into practice what they have learned and prepare them for the workforce. Business and industry sponsor these projects. Students team up as a business consulting unit to solve the client’s technical/business challenge over a 28-week period.
