All mechanical engineering students at Grove City College participate in a Capstone Design Project during their senior year.
Students work in groups to design and construct a useful and marketable device considering social and environmental impact, product packaging, production facilities and methods, and safety concerns. Extensive computer-aided design and manufacturing includes the use of Creo to document, analyze, and fabricate designs. Advanced manufacturing techniques include conventional and investment casting, injection molding, CNC machining, and TIG/MIG welding.
