Check back often! I’ll be updating this page as details for the Expo firm up.
Expo Booklet Project Abstract and Team Bio
We’ll be producing a 2016 Senior Design Expo Booklet. Each team from the expo will be covered in one page of the booklet. From each team, we need the following information:
- Team Name
- Project Title
- Project Overview – A paragraph explaining what your project was about or attempting to achieve
- Name of Sponsor (including sponsoring organization if applicable)
- A brief 2 – 3 sentence about each team member. Incorporate the following:
- Name
- Major
- Areas of interest in your field or role on the team
- What your plans are after graduation if you’re graduating in May
An example can be found here. Note that this is a rough draft for the purposes of content, not for the purposes of layout. I just need the info and will incorporate it into the expo booklet.
