AE 481W/482 Reflection
Senior thesis was an excellent opportunity to work on becoming more self motivated to finish a project. It was a chance to recognize how to manage time properly while producing quality work. With every project, there is never a real finishing point. Realizing that there are time constraints and that project goals must be satisfied is a key factor to finishing the course.
The project itself gave me the opportunity to explore new technologies and how to implement them in a design process. The project served as a great final cap to the 5 year curriculum, where knowledge gained from many pervious courses and projects all aided to producing a good senior thesis.
CPEP Reflection
I enjoyed keeping up with my CPEP website. It served as a great organizational tool and allowed for people in the industry (mainly my thesis sponsor) to check up on me and provide valuable comments and clarifications.
