The Capstone Design Project in the senior year is a great opportunity for students to work on a project of their own choosing.
BME majors work on teams to tackle problems that are identified during a Summer Clinical Immersion Program at the nearby regional hospital Albany Medical Center (AMC).
EE and CpE majors work individually, or in small teams, with a faculty member or local ECE professional for a 30 week duration.There have been many interesting projects over the years and some sample projects from the current year are given in the sections below.
The capstones culminate in a final presentation to all students and faculty. Here are the programs from the last couple of years
