College of Computing and Informatics Senior Project

The Senior Project is a multi-term capstone experience involving in-depth study and application of computing and informatics. Students work in teams to develop a significant product requiring use of a development process that includes planning, specification, design, implementation, evaluation, and documentation. Projects are often conceived by external stakeholders who guide the requirements process and ultimately use the resulting application. Groups may be interdisciplinary with students from varied departments within the College of Engineering and the Digital Media Program.

Project Phases

The project is divided into six phases:

Project Inception

Project ideas are elicited from industry, academia, and from the students themselves.

Project Planning

Students develop plans after gathering requirements and/or building prototypes.

Design

Requirements are converted into comprehensive designs at many levels of detail.

Implementation

Designs are materialized into functional products via a series of iterations.

Testing

Formal testing is carried out using tools like unit-testing.

Deployment

Final products are delivered to the stakeholders for deployment.
