These changes include amove towards an increase in the number of the senior year engineering electives offered. In aneffort to reduce the demands on the faculty advising independent study projects and to encourageincreased Cadet enrollment in engineering electives, the D-C&ME has chosen to reduce thenumber of independent study project offerings.

This is also usuallydiscussed in a purely theoretical sense and is rarely shown to students in a laboratory setting. Thelack of this type of laboratory exercise from most student’s undergraduate curriculum isreasonable considering the time limitations of most standard courses and the difficulty ofproducing labs of this kind. However, it does result in students having limited exposure to thesetopics and would reduce the efficacy of the instruction.
