Training Engineering Leaders Through Practical, Sponsored Projects

Seventeen mechanical and aerospace engineering student capstone project teams presented their technical work to a panel of industry judges and an audience of faculty, sponsors, and peers at the end of the fall 2025 semester.

The student teams have been working with industry partners on projects with significant engineering challenges, real constraints, and real deliverables. Students apply systems engineering, analysis, prototyping, testing, and professional communication to tackle meaningful challenges across aerospace, defense, robotics, manufacturing, sustainable energy, AI systems, and more.

Thank you to our industry sponsors, including AMX, Boeing, JMA Wireless, NAVSEA, Carrier, DuPont, Lockheed Martin, TTM Technologies, Camelot Secure, Gear Motions, Tensilastic Energy, Red Cat, ASHRAE, Pursuit, and Tunabiotics for their partnership and mentorship.

The student teams will advance to full prototype demonstration and final delivery in Spring 2026.
