Projects are an integral part of our hands-on, applications-oriented, undergraduate and graduate curricula, as well as student clubs. All undergraduates are required to complete a senior design project as part of their program, and graduate students can choose between the project or thesis options. The project is a culmination experience in our degree programs - all classroom theory gets put into practice at the end of the program of study. If you are interested in sponsoring a project in the MAE department, please contact faculty with the required expertise directly, or the department chair.
