AE 481W / 482
I believe that participating in the AE senior thesis program was a very valuable experience. While the first portion of the class was more structured, and help was more readily avaiable, it still prepared us for the second part of the course, where we made our own schedules and worked very independantly. The course helped me learn to better structure my time and stay on task and on schedule. I learned a lot throughout the year, from the technical aspects of electrical engineering, to the design aspect of lighting. Even though I only went through several part of building design, it made me amazed at how much coordination and work goes into just one completed building.
CPEP & Discussion Board Reflection
Using the CPEP system throughout the thesis project was very helpful in keeping all assignments, submittals and other information for my thesis organized and available. It was also a great opportunity to learn a small amount about website design and effective communication through this media. The discussion boards were helpful if I had a specific question and needed the advice of someone in the field. It was also helpful to keep up with everything we needed to know about meeting times and due dates.
