Seniors in the <\/span>Textile Engineering<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Textile Technology<\/span><\/a> programs at the <\/span>Wilson College of Textiles<\/span><\/a> have an incredible opportunity each year through <\/span>Senior Design<\/span><\/a>. The two-semester capstone course is designed to allow students to work in small groups to solve an industry-relevant problem that calls on and reinforces all they have learned in their respective programs, while gaining real-world experience they can carry with them to the workforce or graduate school. Each year, 80 to 95 students participate in the program, averaging 20 to 25 teams. The culmination of the course is Design Day, when the teams present their research in a juried poster session at <\/span>NC State<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Read on for more information about this year\u2019s winning teams.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sustainability\/Efficiency<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n
