Mechanical Engineering Student Capstone Project At ZooTampa
Senior capstone design courses at the University of South Florida’s College of Engineering go beyond applying learned knowledge and skills in the classroom. Students have opportunities to solve real-world problems on behalf of community partners such as corporations, schools, governments, and non-profit organizations. It is an opportunity to engineer solutions for the benefit of other people, or in one case, a community of small primates in Tampa.
