Outcome Coverage:

(h) Broad Education to see the impact of engineering solutions. The purpose of Special Projects is to allow the department to introduce timely courses of interest, which may or may not become permanent courses. This is especially true for courses of a new or experimental nature. The alternative use is to allow an in-depth independent design project or study to proceed. In either case, this outcome will be covered.
