Ran in 3 of the last 7 terms. Winter 2027: not on the schedule. Spring 2027: schedule not out yet.

Students must undertake a team-based environmental engineering design project during the last two terms of their program. The purpose of the project is to demonstrate students' abilities to practice in an environmental engineering capacity in their chosen area of expertise, using knowledge gained from their academic and employment experiences. Typically, experiential learning opportunities are incorporated to support undergraduate students in developing and advancing their teamwork skills. The first part of the project (ENVE 400) will include problem identification, generation and selection of solutions, and project management. Incorporation of technical, ecological, social, political, and economic issues in the solution for the project will be required. Sustainability considerations will be emphasized. Requirements include proposal, progress report, oral presentation, and a final report containing design recommendations for part two of the project, ENVE 401.

  • Fun first half of the capstone project. Definitely find a project over the summer before the course starts since finding a good problem is the hardest part of the course.
