The Capstone Project Electronic Portfolio (CPEP) is a web-based project and information center.
It contains material produced for a year-long Senior Thesis class. Its purpose, in addition to
providing central storage of individual assignments, is to foster communication and collaboration
between student, faculty consultant, course instructors, and industry consultants. This website
is dedicated to the research and analysis conducted via guidelines provided by the Department of
Architectural Engineering. For an explanation of this capstone design course and its requirements, visit the AE Senior Thesis link below. |
