Capstone Design is a culminating course offered to undergraduate students in several disciplines at the Georgia Institute of Technology. Students work in teams to design and test solutions for real-world problems. The course allows students to work on real-world, open-ended, interdisciplinary challenges proposed by industrial and research project sponsors or their entrepreneurial projects. They learn and apply the engineering design process: defining functional requirements, conceptualization, analysis, identifying risks and countermeasures, selection, and prototyping.\u003Cbr\u003E\u003Cbr\u003EAt the end of the semester, student teams display and pitch their inventions and marketability to a panel of judges, guests, media, and their peers while competing for cash prizes.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EProjects range from solutions for real-world problems from industry and developing communities to those with real commercialization potential.
