Courses College Physics Capstone Project

AI Thread Summary
For a semester-long capstone project focused on carbon fiber, it's essential to clarify the specific requirements and available resources at your institution. Engaging with a faculty mentor can help refine project ideas to ensure they are physics-intensive and feasible within the semester timeframe. While many participants in the discussion have experience with capstone projects, they emphasize the importance of understanding institutional guidelines and constraints to develop a successful project.

I am required to complete a semester-long capstone project for my undergrad. I'd like to do something involving carbon fiber. Was just looking for some possible ideas. The difficulty is finding a project that is physics heavy and can last an entire semester. Thanks

You need to flesh out the requirements I think...

Usually, the coordinator at your school can provide some guidelines, and a faculty mentor at your school will help you mold your rough ideas into something attainable given your skills, the available resources, and the available time.

Lots of folks here have experience with capstone projects, but we have no insight into the requirements at your school or the available resources.
 

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Tips for a CS and physics major'

Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
