Senior Design Memories
The Senior Design Conference at Western Michigan University’s College of Engineering and Applied Sciences showcases the work of students from all disciplines. It is an opportunity for them to share fresh perspectives and develop new systems.
As students graduate into an industrial era of smart and sustainable systems, they must address the future needs of industry through a lens of innovative engineering. This Senior Design Conference is an important step in the development of the future of engineering—testing knowledge and skills in a real-world setting and completing projects for industry sponsors, the regional community, and our own campus.
This event would not be possible without the contributions of our faculty, staff, and industry sponsors. We hope you enjoy this event and will discover something new from our students.
