My final thoughts.

Senior Thesis Reflection

My experience during the AE Senior Thesis not only helped me grow as a student and engineer, but introduced me to the continuous learning and communication of design that I will encounter throughout my career as well. This project opened my eyes to the true meaning behind time and stress management and how to learn from my mistakes. I learned to document my work thoroughly, organize my thoughts in a comprehensive way for myself and others, and to have fun with what I was doing. The stress and the struggles came and went, and I ultimately found this experience to be beneficial and rewarding as a student, designer, engineer, and young woman about to enter the real world.

CPEP Reflection

Prior to senior thesis, I had little to no experience with web design. I truly enjoyed documenting my work in a graphical way along with my textual reports and numerical analyses. As I enter the design and engineering industry, I will take these many documentation skills with me in order to communicate my design successfully.

  • While great efforts have been taken to provide accurate and complete information on the pages of CPEP, please be aware that the information contained herewith is considered a work‐in progress for this thesis project. Modifications and changes related to the original building designs and construction methodologies for this senior thesis project are solely the interpretation of Nina Italiano. Changes and discrepancies in no way imply that the original design contained errors or was flawed. Differing assumptions, code references, requirements, and methodologies have been incorporated into this thesis project; therefore, investigation results may vary from the original design.
