PHYS 4175 - Physics Research Proposal

UG
Credit Hours: 1

This course is a requirement for the major. Students will use this semester to investigate the feasibility of a research project of their choice. Students who are following Mechanical Engineering concentration must chose a project involving design and fabrication of a mechanical device. The project may be designed for an individual or for a team. The course consists of weekly meetings to discuss the progress and possible refinement of the project. The result of the course will be a feasibility report, budget proposal, project schedule, and formal presentation to the Society of Physics Students. If the project is determined to be feasible, including budget, it satisfies the prerequisite for the Senior Capstone course.

Prerequisites: Students must have completed the equivalent of a physics minor.
