  • Prof. Hany Aziz's format of this course is terrible, not conducing to creativity and innovation in which capstone is all about. Mandatory 80 Page report is just awful. This course needs some serious change, in the structure, deliverables and professor.

  • The course had biweekly submissions, each one focusing on a specific deliverable (lit review, constraints, design, verification plan, simulations), then a final report which combined all the submissions.
    It was useful for fleshing out the FYDP and making steady progress, but grading was questionable.
    The marking on the final report was brutal - some groups went from 100 to 60. This course counts as a full credit for degree average and is non-optional. If you need grades for grad school, good luck and pray for mercy.
