Many of the projects are industry-sponsored by entities including Boston Whaler, Coca Cola, Mitsubishi, Orlando Utilities Commission, Steelcase and Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½.<\/p>\n<p>Senior design is a required capstone course for most graduating seniors of the Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½ College of Engineering and Computer Science. The projects represent a significant portion of students\u2019 grades and in many cases is the final step before graduation.<\/p>\n<p>The showcase gives students a chance to present their projects to a general audience to show they are fully prepared for engineering and computing jobs. It\u2019s also a way for employers to meet engineering and computer science\u00a0 graduates about to enter the workforce.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"h5\">Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½ Alumni Judges: A Record Number Volunteer to Help<\/h2>\n<p>Adding a friendly competitive element to the showcase, Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½ engineering and computer science alumni will serve as judges this semester. More than 90 Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½ alumni signed up to serve as judges who will score the projects on a variety of metrics, provide valuable feedback to the student teams, and select the best project in each discipline and Best in Show. Winning projects will be announced on the showcase webpage on Dec. 4.<\/p>\n<p>Because of the virtual nature of the Fall 2020 showcase, more judges have been able to participate compared to previous in-person showcases held on Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½\u2019s main campus. The alumni are professional engineers and computer scientists who are self-employed or work in companies of all sizes throughout the state, from across the nation, and even internationally.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe competitive aspect of Â鶹ӳ»­´«Ã½ Senior Design has raised the bar on projects,\u201d\u00a0 says <strong>Mark Blue<\/strong> <strong>\u201989 \u201908MBA \u201910MS<\/strong>, a systems engineer for L3Harris Technologies who has volunteered as a judge for several years. \u201cIt gives students marketing skills that they need when interviewing. If you medal, that conversation will be the core of every job interview.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy introducing a level of competition in senior design, we replicate, in a microcosm, what happens every day in industry. Students who take up that gauntlet will invariably be more competitive and successful throughout their careers.
