Engineering Research Seminar

Course Description

Exposing undergraduate students to the elements of the research necessary to solve many of the pressing world challenges is key to their educational experience. It builds their appreciation for the fundamental knowledge they are garnering through their undergraduate education, and delineates the methodologies needed to go from a simple hypothesis into an innovative solution through a process of searching, learning, testing, documenting, patenting, and publishing. Along this line, the goal of this research seminar is to expose students to the research of the faculty in the Engineering Division. This will be achieved by requiring enrolled students to attend at least nine research seminars delivered by selected faculty members from the division. Enrolled students are required to submit an essay summarizing the main findings of each seminar they attended. Students who intend to pursue the undergraduate honors research program must first enroll in this course. Note: this course counts as a general elective for all engineering disciplines.
