Abstract

This paper outlines the capstone environmental engineering design course that has been used effectively at California Polytechnic State University. Senior level students work in teams on a multi-media industrial problem. The experience involves literature review, problem formulation, proposal writing, time management, technical and economic analysis and an oral and written presentation of the results. Feedback from alumni and employers has been positive.
