New Organization For EE491-492 Senior Design Project Classes

Starting from Fall 2006, we want to make some changes on the format of the EE491-EE492 project classes. Our main purpose is to form application oriented hands-on group projects. The other purpose is to coordinate and organize all the projects with the help of this website and the organization committee formed among the faculty members of our department.

According to this new organization, students have two options to choose:

  1. » · Application oriented hands-on projects (Spread over two semesters, EE491-492 projects)
  2. » · Individual studies (one semester)

In this situation, EE491 is a 3 credit complementary class, whereas EE492 continues to be a 4 credit, mandatory class.

Taking just EE491 without a related EE492 is not allowed.

EE491-492 option is not only for group projects.An individual can also choose an individual project spanning over two semesters.

Information about project proposals and ongoing projects, names of the students assigned to projects, important deadlines and templates of report and other forms are published on this website.

We would like majority of the students to choose the application oriented hands-on group projects spanning over two semesters. At the end of these projects real, working devices and systems will be implemented by a group work. These projects will train you on how to work in groups and how to develop products from concept to reality. This is a good chance to show your innovative and entrepreneurial skills. Maybe, what you do in these projects will be demonstrated on the corridors of our department as an example to future generations, or the ideas in these projects will start new companies or maybe what you do here will be prototypes of the products that will appeal to an industrial company.

We believe it is time to do research and development.
