AE 481W/482 Course Reflection:
I thought that this course was the perfect capstone project to end my college career with. Not only was it a huge project that challenged me personally, but it taught me how to work in a design group with other professionals. The complexity of work and the time devotion that is required to be successful is significant and these skills will prove to help me in my upcoming years of employment. There are lessons that need to be learned that cannot necessarily be taught in a classroom. Interacting with other design disciplines and the bonds that are created during stressful deadlines are things that I will carry with me for a long time. Without this course, the major would not be the same and the individuals coming out of the program would not be as valuable.

CPEP Reflection:
I think that the idea of the CPEP sites is an incredible idea and it really helps to sell a potential employee to an employer. Unfortunately, the AEI teams were not able to partake in this because of the competition rules. Now that the competition is over, anybody who was a competitor in the AEI competition can take advantage of the CPEP site and can show employers as they wish. Overall, I think that it is a great idea.
