Thirty student teams in Purdue Polytechnic鈥檚 School of Engineering Technology will give poster presentations about their industry-sponsored senior capstone projects on Friday, December 8, in the Purdue Memorial Union鈥檚 south ballroom.

Each team designs and builds projects throughout the fall and spring semesters. Most capstone projects require the improvement of a process to increase safety, efficiency, or automation for an industry customer.

Student teams in Purdue Polytechnic’s School of Engineering Technology will present the results of nearly 40 industry-sponsored senior capstone projects on Friday, April 28, in the Ross Enterprise Center at the Purdue Research Park. Students worked to design and build their projects throughout the fall and spring semesters. 

Overcoming classroom barriers. Salting wintry roads with less waste. Powering a lawn mower with water.

Senior design students tackled these projects in ECET 49700 (Project Design and Development, Phase II), which is offered each semester as a capstone course for electrical engineering technology majors.

Five students were honored during the public display of the projects May 4:
