Exploring the cornerstones of our built environment

What is a capstone?

The SSEBE capstone course is a senior-level project for undergraduate students in civil, construction, and environmental engineering at ASU. Students work in teams to solve real-world problems with industry sponsors, developing skills in project management, teamwork, and technical communication.

The program concludes with a public showcase where teams present their final projects, which are similar to those that they will engage in during their careers. Industry professionals, students’ families and friends, faculty members, staff and students are encouraged to attend.
