Scope
With the same outcome goal as CH489 of significantly advancing the cadet's knowledge and comprehension of science and engineering into answering a real world scientific question, this course typically involves experimentation, data analysis, data evaluation, and publishing results. Cadets are supervised by a faculty advisor with expertise in the chosen research area. Cadets conduct research individually but may be part of a larger group working on a project with a broad scope. This course could conclude in a poster presentation, publication and/or a conference presentation as the undergraduate researcher contributes to the larger scientific community. Requirements include both a written final report and an oral presentation.
