Hello Everyone,
I hope classes are continuing to go well!
EWB will be meeting tomorrow, Wednesday 9/23, at 7:15 in Votey 254.
Peter DeGraff, a professional engineer, one of our fabulous advisors,
and President of the professional chapter of Engineers Without Borders
- Vermont, will be giving a brief presentation on the processes
consulting engineers undergo when planning out a project. We are
fortunate to have the opportunity to learn about these steps, and get
the chance to apply these ideas before actually graduating and getting
our first real jobs. I believe the practice of this process now as
undergraduate students will give us a boost when finding a job after
graduation!
We will be using this knowledge in our individual project groups to
define a scope for the semester and create a Ghant chart (like a
timeline/schedule) for the semester. Planning is one of the most
important parts in planning out and following through on a project!
If you have yet to decide which group (one of the three oven groups or
water group) you are interested in, please join us anyway--all
thoughts and ideas are helpful!
See everyone tomorrow!
Abby
