Senior Design
Senior Design provides PNW engineering students with supervised experience in the process and practice of engineering design.
Students working in teams pursue an idea from conception to realistic design. The course concludes with the presentation of a substantial written report and a formal oral presentation.
Presentation Dates
All senior design presentations will take place on the Hammond Campus.
