Each spring, the Engineering Projects Expo gives our graduating students a chance to show off all they have learned during their time at CU Âé¶¹Ó°Ôº.Ìý

Computer science capstone projects are academic year-long experiences. Student teams complete a substantial software project that reinforces skills learned through classwork and prepares them to thrive in the next stage of their careers.

This year, 31 teams of undergraduate students and 18 graduate student teams displayed their projects for hundreds of family members, friends and members of the general public. Ìý

They were also assessed by 18 BS, MS and PhD alumni, judged the teams' technical knowledge; project scope and supporting data; development and repository; testing; product/project functionality; technical communication; and professionalism.Ìý
