Undergraduate Research and Design Symposium – Oral Presentations April 27, 2018

Welcome to the College’s Undergraduate Research and Design Symposium (UGRADS) Oral Presentations. We have reached the 25th year of oral presentations showcasing our Civil, Electrical, Environmental, Mechanical Engineering and Computer Science capstone projects. Additional poster presentations featuring the varied intellectual accomplishments that result from undergraduate research throughout the college are in the Skydome in two sessions from 9:00 – 11:00am & 2:00 - 4:00pm. Presentations are arranged into three morning sessions (#1: 8:00 – 9:10am, #2: 9:20 – 10:30am, and #3: 10:40-11:25am) and two afternoon sessions (#4: 1:10 - 2:20pm & #5: 2:30 – 3:40pm), by discipline as shown below. All presentations will be in the du Bois Center meeting rooms. Lunch and the Keynote address will be in the du Bois Ballroom. Engineering and Computer Science project websites are available for viewing for this year and as far back as 1996 by visiting http://www.cefns.nau.edu/capstone/d4p/ . Sponsors this year include W.L. Gore, Dan & Cindy Klingberg, Begovac Experiment Fund, NASA, Freeport- McMoRan, Dr. Henry Hooper, McCarthy Building, Raytheon, Loven Contracting, and Phi Kappa Phi.
