A full-year sequence focused on a year-long team-based faculty-mentored applied design project. Students admitted to Honors will fully participate in a team capstone EPAD project (PHYS/APSC 471 and 472), and in addition will conduct independent research and design work that contributes toward the group project goals. Students are also required to contribute an individual single-authored chapter(s) to the final team report, as well as to present a comprehensive oral examination on their work to an honors committee. If successfully completed, this course will satisfy the College writing requirement. In addition to the EPAD track major course requirements, Honors students will be required to complete two credit hours of independent research during their senior year (APSC401/402 and PHYS455) for their individual research contributions.
