This work, togetherwith the partnerships that have been developed between the Colleges of Engineering, Educationand Science, have resulted in a unique capstone design project. The project includes students inthe Electronic Systems (ESET) and the Mechatronics (MXET) programs in the College ofEngineering paired with students in the College of Education and the College of Science. Basedon the identified need for both resources and curriculum, the project team is engaged in thedesign and development of a one-quarter scale, four room “house” that is fully instrumented tobe monitored and controlled remotely as a IoT system.
