capstone design project is embraced by schools from Orono, Maine to San Diego,CA and many, many in between [5, 6]. The opportunity to practice project managementprinciples, put theory into practice, and accomplish something of significance serves to enrichand motivate. Naturally this is no less true in the area of Electrical, Computer, Communications,and Telecommunications Engineering education.This paper describes such a capstone project as conducted at the United States Coast GuardAcademy (CGA) on Secure IPv6 Design. At this time education in networking at the CGA isfocused almost entirely Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) at the Internet layer. Through thisyear-long project, two senior students (known as cadets at CGA) successfully extended

Technical reports: In their senior design/capstone projects students work on two semesterprojects. In these projects, they are usually required to design and/or build a new product, deviceor an engineering solution. As an output of their engineering process, they are required to submitthe final report at least a week before the end of the semester. The average length of a seniordesign report is 20 to 30 pages. PowerPoint presentation: Engineering students are required to deliver a group oralpresentation to department faculty and fellow students during the last

Thus, in addition to having traditional classrooms for lectures, GalvanizeU/UNH has multiple places (including labs and computer workstations) where students can experiment and work on their class and capstone projects, meet in teams to discuss their work, reflect on issues, meet with industry representatives, meet with faculty informally, etc. • All students work as part of a community from the beginning.

laptops with more computing power and the smalllaptops that are portable and easy to carry. Due to the large amount of traveling that many collegestudents endure, many students find the less powerful, more portable option more inviting. Yet,what if they did not have to make the choice? Instead, the campus could host servers to allowstudent to lease computing power to create a more flexible computing environment while notmaking the students carry heavy computers around campus.This has been the primary motivation behind the adoption of this project by two senior students astheir senior capstone project. In this paper, we provide highlights of the challenges, successes andresults. The purpose of the project was to virtualize the Telecom, Networking

paper thereby serves as an innovative way to expose technology students to this difficult topic and gives them a fresh taste of Python programming while having fun learning the Discrete and Fast Fourier Transforms.  1. Background  Engineering departments are often confronted with the necessity to update laboratory exercises and equipment with the latest emerging technological trends within tight budget constraints. Another challenge faced by departments pertains to satisfying the Engineering Technology Accreditation Commission (ETAC) criteria for capstone senior project experience within the curriculum. In this paper we will explain how we attempted to solve these challenges by exposing students to new emerging
