Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering

Enterprise

Enterprises are student-led companies embracing rich experiences in engineering design, team building, project management, and end-to-end original product development. The program gives teams of students from varied disciplines the opportunity to work for several semesters in a business-like setting to solve real-world engineering problems supplied by industry partners. Typical activities of an Enterprise team include performing testing and analysis; making recommendations; manufacturing parts; developing products, processes, and services; meeting budgets and schedules; and managing multiple projects.
