As Senior Design<\/a> – the year-long capstone course for the Textile Engineering<\/a> and Textile Technology<\/a> degree programs – came to a close this week, it brought new skill sets for students, problems solved for project sponsors and a slate of winners who were recognized for their design creativity and technical merit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In their fall semester, Senior Design student teams are presented with a relevant industrial or research problem that necessitates the need for them to leverage prior classwork to create a solution.
