mechanical,electrical and optical engineering including statics, AC and DC circuits, and photonics, openingthe students to upper level courses in these disciplines. The capstone sequence begins with a 10week junior design course where a series of small design projects tests their ability to solveproblems in a variety of disciplines. Following the junior design course, the students have a 20week senior design sequence where they design, build and deliver a prototype for an externalclient. Aside from these core components the students gain additional breadth through courses inmath, chemistry, and computer science. This curriculum was designed to include room for atechnical area of focus outside of the engineering physics curriculum through a set
