2022 Capstone Presentations – ECE 189 Sr. Projects
The Capstone Project presentations held on June 2, 2022 gives ECE students the opportunity to put their education into practice by working in small teams designing, building, and presenting an engineering design project
The design challenges, of which each team selects one to tackle, are proposed and supported by UCSB faculty research groups or by industry sponsors. Projects typically involve the design and implementation of both hardware and software systems. The projects span a variety of topics in the fields of electrical & computer engineering and computer engineering.
Every year at the end of the Spring quarter, the final projects are displayed at an event with each student group participating in a project presentation and a poster session. A panel of experts from academia and industry judges each of the teams and selects award winners.
