Abstract/Description

This paper discusses the use of a gated review process for administering a capstone senior design course. A gated review process is a tool used in product and process development by companies and institutions. It is a process that systematically controls the progress of a design cycle while also managing the risks inherent with new designs. The process consists of four phased review elements. Each element terminates in a mandated gate review that is staged at key times during the lifecycle of the design projects.
