Although the AE students must continueto design the project’s architecture, the requirements for them begin to differ during designdevelopment, placing a focus on structural systems design and calculations. Formal juries ofprofessional architects and engineers mark the transitions from one phase to another, and thecalendar allows the rare opportunity for students to respond to jury comments through designrevisions. Handouts are distributed and seminars occur weekly to provide additional informationand requirements as the designs progress.Even after many

Participation in Design Day is an opportunity for CoRe Experience students to demonstratetheir academic success in a setting that provides an opportunity to interact with industryprofessionals and members of the faculty. Preparing for this event is another opportunity forstudents to practice their oral and written technical communication.
