CV 490 - Senior Design Project I

3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Students will apply their academic knowledge of civil and environmental engineering systems to the design of a real-world project as part of a multidisciplinary project team. There are a number of potential types of projects that can be used to satisfy the senior design project requirements; e.g., (1) national design competitions, (2) international service projects with organizations such as Engineers Without Borders (EWB), (3) projects solicited from or offered by local municipal entities or businesses, or (4) projects proposed by students (with approval by the program director). In this first quarter, students design teams are organized and paired with a faculty advisor. Lectures address the design process, engineering specifications, and library research techniques. The quarter culminates in the production of a detailed design proposal. (prereq: senior standing)
