Thus the senior computer, electrical and mechanical engineering students endtheir academic careers by teaming to conduct an engineering analysis, design, prototypefabrication, test and reporting of a “product” or engineered system. On occasion, severalof the groups will also team with business (senior) students who are responsible forproducing a Business Plan resulting from their objective examination of the businessviability of the Capstone “project/product”.Ultimately the results of these capstone projects provide evidence to the students of theirmastery of their individual disciplines as well as their ability to work in dynamic groupscomposed of seemingly diverse engineering

A faculty member’s work, whether they are early careeror at a later stage in their academic career, can fall into a reactive mode, rather than anintentional and proactive mode that supports one’s goals.

Class sessions use a studio model of instruction and encourage peer instruction in teams for every class session. The "context" for the course is to prepare students for their academic and professional engineering careers.
