Welcome

There are a number of exciting EE Capstone projects that students are
working on during the 2015-2016 academic year.
Many of the projects are multi-disciplinary projects, in which an EE
team is paired with teams from ME and/or CE.
Each project is sponsored either by a research group at UCSB or by one
of our industry partners. Each student
group is made up of 3-5 students. While
groups are independently responsible for working on and completing their
projects, each group is assigned a mentor, typically from the group which is
sponsoring the project, to provide technical guidance and assistance. Student groups work on their projects
throughout the entire 2015-2016 academic year, and then present their work at
the 2016 ME/EE Design Fair on June 3, 2016.
The 2015-2016 EE Capstone Projects are described below:
