Hands-On Learning
Put your engineering knowledge into action through project-driven courses. Working in teams, you’ll tackle real-world challenges for actual clients—gaining hands-on experience and making a tangible impact.
Project Examples
Here are just a few of the latest projects our students have been working on.
Three-Dimensional Clinostat
This device simulates microgravity in a laboratory setting by rotating cell cultures in two planes.
Wheelchair Snow Plow
A snow plow accessory was designed to be compatible with manual wheelchairs to help with snow removal.
Adaptive Shower Head
This handheld shower head dispenses soapy water in order to provide more independence for people with a limited range of motion.
Prosthetic Climbing Leg
Utilizing the existing prosthetic socket, a climbing leg was designed and fabricated for above-knee amputees.
Trailer Mule
This device assists with moving trailers, while also being able to test trailer lights during routine maintenance.
