Every spring, seniors in the engineering department are required to showcase what they have learned through a Senior Design Project. The projects are chosen by both professors and students. Some projects are completed for fun, a club, or even for a customer. I spoke with Mr. Jaillet in the Electrical Engineering department to get some details on what is in-store […]

It was the goal of GCC senior engineers Logan Mackenzie and Sam Cooper to coax the engineers out of the […]
