2. Become a Mentor for CPE 100
The CPE Office is in the
process of recruiting CPE Mentors for this coming Fall 2015. We are looking for
40 motivated students to mentor the incoming freshmen (as part of their CPE100
course) during the 2015 fall quarter.
We've gotten positive feedback from students who have participated in
the past. And all you need in order to be a successful mentor is a desire to
have fun and help others.
If you are interested
please add your name to the Mentor list found at:
https://cpe.calpoly.edu/student-mentoring/cpe-mentor-information/
If you have any questions
please email me or stop by the CPE office (20-215).

Opportunities!!!
ENGR 459-01
Multidisciplinary Senior Design Project Course - Fall 2015
We will be
offering a multidisciplinary senior design project course (ENGR 459) this Fall
which involves students from all engineering majors. This is a three-quarter sequence (ENGR
459/460/461) which emphasizes multidisciplinary team collaboration, design, and
innovation skills to work on sponsored design projects requiring
multidisciplinary talents. Students will
apply a formal engineering design process to solve an open-ended design problem
and will design, manufacture, and test solutions to these problems. The course will be offered Tuesdays and
Thursdays 3:10 - 6:00 PM in 197-104 all quarters. Attached is a flyer which includes examples
of previous projects that were run through this class, as well as how this
course counts towards each major's curriculum.
Hope to see you in class!
If you have any
questions about the course, please contact the current instructors:
Dr. Lily Laiho
(BMGE), llaiho@calpoly.edu
Dr. Jim Widmann
(ME), jwidmann@calpoly.edu

Special Section
of ENGR 459-461 for Interdisciplinary Innovative/Entrepreneurial Senior
Projects
Do you want to do
a senior project based upon your own innovation or entrepreneurial idea – or
get involved with others who are doing this?
A special section of ENGR 459-461 senior project is being offered this year
(starting this fall) for students interested in working on an interdisciplinary
student-initiated entrepreneurial senior project. Teams will consist of students from multiple
engineering departments and the Orfalea College of Business. Projects and teams will be finalized during
the beginning of fall quarter.
Even if you don't
necessarily have an innovation but want the experience of developing a product
from scratch and working on an interdisciplinary team to understand the process
of developing customers and validating your product’s market acceptance, this is
an ideal senior project experience for you.
An example of
already approved projects are:
- Robotic Device
with Light Sources intended for cleaning and disinfection of objects (e.g.
boats)
- Portable
rechargeable, supercharging plug outlet/charging stand
- Drag and drop
site for developing simple crowdfunding campaigns (e.g. Wix for Kickstarter)
- IOT devices
for coffee shops and restaurants to notify businesses when items are empty
(e.g. coffee stations)
- Color tunable
lighting product with intuitive or responsive programming interface
- Too many ideas
to list here!!
If you have an
idea or want to participate on a team contact Professor Katona
(tkatona@calpoly.edu) to discuss and to obtain a permission number.
