This year, the UConn UTC Institute of Advanced Systems Engineering hosted five Senior Design projects that gave undergraduate UConn engineering students the opportunity to apply their skills to systems engineering projects. These projects allowed students to develop systems engineering skills that they can apply to their post-graduation endeavors.
Each project was supported by one of our Academic Year 2020-2021 Senior Design Project Sponsors: Collins Aerospace, Carrier, Sonalysts, and Nel. The groups each had industry advisors from their respective sponsors, as well as a UConn faculty advisor.
Although there were no live presentations due to COVID-19 restrictions, each group created a video to display the results of their project.
