Mechanical Engineering - Engineering Mechanics Sample of Capstone Senior Design Projects as featured at the University-wide Undergraduate Research Expo 2011:

Industry support of Senior Design enables small teams of highly dedicated students to explore and solve real industry challenges throughout their senior year. Our program is more like a ‘first job’ than a ‘last class’, connecting students and industry through open-ended, industrial projects. Our projects enable teams to follow the complete design process from ideation to realization. Access to extensive design, analysis, fabrication, and test facilities on campus allows a broad range of projects to be completed.
