ABET Outcome Survey
AE 481W/482 Course Reflection The past few months of senior thesis has been a very valuable experience. It provided a simulation of what working in a professional design office is like into our education. During the course, we had to analyze a project, assess the problems and suggest alternatives. We had deadlines to meet, but it was up to us to plan according and complete the tasks on time. The amount of knowledge that was gained through the hands on use of the different building codes and design/analysis software far exceeds what could have been gained in a traditional classroom setting.
CPEP & Discussion Board Reflection The discussion board is just one example of how connected to the industry the AE program is. It provided all thesis students a window to a whole wealth of knowledge that otherwise would have been unreachable for many. It was great to be able to ask people who deal with the issues we ran into on a daily basis. Additionally they were able to provide detailed information about design questions for specific regions of the country and how things are best done in the specific location of our projects.
