Electrical Engineering Capstone Design Projects

3 units

Capstone design project supervised by the course instructor. The project must use the theory, techniques, and concepts of the student's major: electrical engineering or systems science & engineering. Students will completely solve a technological or societal problem, starting from initial specification, proceeding with the application of engineering methods, and terminating with an actual solution. Collaboration with a client, typically an engineer or supervisor from local industry or a professor or researcher in university laboratories, is encouraged. Weekly progress reports and meetings with the instructor are required. Deliverables include a proposal, interim progress update, final report, and project webpage, in the forms of a written document and oral presentation as applicable. Note: Enrollment in this course requires project approval by the instructors. Interested students will need to send a 1-page proposal listing project title, description, group members, and project client(s) and/or collaborator(s). Once their projects are approved, students will be enrolled in the course.
