| Description: | Together, the courses ECE 290 and ECE 390, and ECE 490 create a vertical project track under which students work in teams on long-term engineering projects. Each team consists of a mix of sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Projects of at least one-year duration are intended to solve real problems that are defined in consultation with "customers" from Purdue or the community. ECE 490 students are responsible for the management tasks of planning and organizing their team project activity and interacting with the faculty advisors and customer representatives. Their technical responsibilities include system design, solving technical problems, and training, monitoring, and directing the sophomores and juniors in the tasks of system construction, testing and deployment. Students are encouraged to participate in an EPOCS project team for two or more semesters via enrollment in ECE 290 while a sophomore, ECE 390 while a junior, and ECE 490 while a senior. |
