Senior Projects

The Senior Project is the capstone experience for all Computer Science and Information Technology students. Working closely with a faculty member of their choice, each student selects a problem, analyzes it and develops a solution. During the final week of the semester, they will give a formal presentation of this project. Each student will then answer questions regarding their work from the department faculty, students and guests.

To sign up for senior project, each student must:

• Complete the prerequisites:
• Be a "Senior"
• CS majors - complete all required 3000 level courses
• IT majors - complete both CS 3720 and CS 4220
• Examine the "Faculty Suggestions."

• Settle on a project and a professor with whom to work.
• Write a one paragraph description of your project. You and the professor sign, indicating that you agree on this project.

• Once your project is approved by the chair, have your pre-registration form or "Add" slip signed by the chair (as instructor).
