By the senior year, students have acquired sufficient breadth in Electrical Engineering (EE) and are on their way to acquire depth in one or more areas of specialization through technical electives.
Intellectual maturity also requires that students understand their education in the broader context of the world and are prepared to make committed choices as participants of this complex world. The capstone design project, offered as a two semesters sequence, provides students with an opportunity to reflect on their entire educational experience, integrate the knowledge and skills acquired in earlier years, form connections within and across disciplines, and synthesize a solution to a problem connecting them to the broader issues of their discipline as well as the world they’re about to enter.
