5 CR This is a culminating project assignment for an individual or a group of students. The instructor may assign a specific topic for the project or work with a local industry/plant to define a particular project topic from a real-life situation. The student or the group of students will define the problem, resources needed, postulate the hypothesis/solution, research the problem and possible solutions, visit the plant, interview/consult with instructor/engineers technicians and other resources and internet to develop a solution. The student or the group will then write the technical report defining the complete process from defining the problem, methodology applied, and their conclusion.
