EGR 7921 - Engineering Project I3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits Course Description This is the first three-credit registration of the engineering project, which begins with the proposal development. Student project is selected. A detailed project proposal is prepared with the guidance of the program director. Topics addressed in the proposal preparation include the problem definition, engineering specifications, design process, patent and intellectual property, library research, reliability and safety, and project management. The course addresses how to organize and manage the MSE capstone project report and at two-thirds of the timeline, student presents the proposal orally to the committee. Upon approval, the student develops an analytical study, engineering project or other suitable technical study in consultation with the paired advisor. The project can draw from multiple disciplines or can focus on a technical area within the student’s chosen field of study. (prereq: completion of at least 12 semester credits of the program and program director consent) Course Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Integrate and analyze information in the form of a scholarly work as an independent engineering project
