2024 Capstone Design Symposium

Lots of people walkiing around looking at posters on tables in a big hallway

Capstone Design Projects are undertaken in the final year of an undergraduate degree program. These projects allow students to combine all the knowledge and skills they have acquired throughout their degree program and apply them to design a project that excites and inspires them.

The students own the ideas and devices they create for the design competition, and there are several pitch competitions that follow the Capstone Design Event. These competitions provide students with the opportunity to compete for funding to launch their devices commercially. The creation of these projects often leads to the creation of start-up companies.

This year's projects ranged from Hera Analytics award winning project aimed to create a non-invasive point-of-care device to detect hormones assosiated with ovulation to adZrb. adZrb was a project create by Team 4. They created a product for wastewater treatment by combining 3D printing with advanced material science.
