Course Content
This is an independent study under the supervision of the student's advisor. Each student is expected to conduct research to explore and identify a potential area of study suitable for a senior design project. A specific mechatronic engineering problem within the selected area of study must be defined. The results of this study must be documented and presented as a project proposal.
Objectives of the Course
Case Studies and Students'presentations. A specific mechatronics engineering problem must then be identified from within the selected study area. Results from this study must be documented and submitted in the form of a design project proposal.
