UConn Engineering is looking for industry partners to sponsor Senior Design Projects for the coming school year.<\/p>\n
Every year, UConn School of Engineering students work on over 150 Senior Design Projects. Our seniors work closely with industry sponsors on projects relevant to the real-world challenges that business faces. They regularly meet with a company\u2019s liaison to determine a sponsor\u2019s needs, develop a project objective statement, create design concepts and select one to design to fully implement. The students then create a prototype and submit a written report to their sponsor company.<\/p>\n
The budget, usually between $7,000 and $10,000, is used to fund hardware, supplies and equipment expenses for construction and testing of prototypes.<\/p>\n
Sponsors generally provide a project idea that isn\u2019t an urgent need for the company. That assignment reflects a separate and distinct activity, system or process within the business. They also provide a liaison engineer or technical representative who oversees the work of the team.<\/p>\n
Past sponsors have included General Electric, Pfizer, Pratt & Whitney and TRUMPF.<\/p>\n
