2. What questions do you have that haven't been answered about the senior project? This can be about the senior project in general, any components or about a presentation topic you saw or what they said.
- How do I apply for service learning hours at an engineering firm in southern California?
- How do I apply for an engineering mentorship at Cal-Trans?
- Is there specific criteria for our bibliography? (e.g., MLA format? minimum number of sources? Videos? Newspapers/print sources? etc.)
Based on what I have seen in the 2-hour presentations, the most important aspect of the senior project is the three answers to the essential question.
4. What topic are you considering doing and why?
I am consider considering doing electrical engineering as my topic because it is the major I want to obtain in college and the career I want to pursue later in life. Choosing electrical engineering as my senior presentation topic provides me with the opportunity to familiarize myself with what an electrical engineer does and to prepare myself for what my major has in store for me when I go to Cal Poly Pomona. By doing electrical engineering as my topic, I hope to:
a) learn the basics of what an engineer does
b) understand how the mind of an engineer works
c) gain valuable work experience to put me a step ahead in my studies
d) attain insight and advice from engineering professionals
5. What are you doing for your summer mentorship?
For my summer mentorship, I am planning to work at Cal-Trans as an office associate. I will also look into finding a mentor through the ACE Mentor Program, like some of the seniors at I-poly have done in the past.
