Submit Project Idea Here!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Do you or a colleague have an idea for a project that could make the world a better place? The department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is hoping to identify new projects for the Senior Design capstone course for 2025-26. As always, we look to our ECE alumni, local industry, BU faculty, and the broader community to help us source these challenges for our students.<\/p>\n We seek projects that aim to solve real-world problems.<\/strong> All projects should reveal an engineering challenge in industry, government, non-profits, small businesses, start-ups, or every-day life. Selected projects will be presented to seniors at the beginning of the semester in early September. During the Fall semester, teams evaluate concepts to meet client requirements, propose a delivery plan, and build first prototypes. In the Spring, teams test and deliver the completed HW\/SW system to the client.<\/p>\n The most common feedback reported by Senior Design clients is appreciation for helping to prepare students for employment and real-world challenges.<\/p>\n You can see examples of recent projects here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Helpful info to include in your email (a short summary is enough):<\/p>\n Project ideas are requested by mid\/late July.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>After selection, teams will contact the project client for additional details. <\/span>Clients are not required to provide financial support to teams, although many choose to donate equipment or other resources.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Clients can participate as much or little as they prefer during the year. It is expected that each client connects with their team in September, during which the team will reach out to learn more about the project and review specific engineering requirements. All teams prepare interim and final documentation, including engineering drawings as appropriate. This documentation and the final project deliverables are given to the client at the end of the course.<\/span><\/p>\n Submit Project Idea Here!<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Thanks again, and we look forward to hearing from you.
