Louisiana Tech University’s College of Engineering and Science held its annual Senior Projects Conference on Friday, May 7. The Senior Projects Conference is the culmination of the College of Engineering and Science (COES) senior capstone experience – a yearlong series of hands-on and independent study courses in which students develop solutions to real-world problems and create innovative products. The 2021 Senior Projects Conference was like no other, both in that it was the first to be held in the Integrated Engineering and Science Building (IESB) and in that seniors had to get creative in developing safe ways to collaborate with their teams and their project advisors early on.
