Civil Engineering Capstone
Undergraduate | 2 Credits
CATALOG #10607180
This capstone class is a project-based learning experience that allows students to integrate and demonstrate their civil engineering drafting, design, and survey skills by applying them to a specific engineering problem. Students collaborate in teams to apply their problem-solving and technology skills to a design experience. Working in collaboration with a faculty member, students plan, produce, document and present quality engineering designs. Students should be in their last semester of the Civil Engineering Technology program to enroll in this class. Prerequisites: Civil Engineering Drafting II 10607160, Storm Water Management 10607170, and Highway Surveying 10607171
