Students who fail to make sufficient progress by the end of the semester can expect to receive a poor grade, possibly failure. Below are listed a number of project areas. These are divided into several major areas, each of which is further divided into sub areas. Within these sub areas is a description of the kind of projects that may be available, and in most cases of few examples of specific projects. Students should read about the respective areas and decide on two or three that most coincide with his or her interests.
All Projects have contact information.
