The cadet pursues study of a topic in mechanical engineering on an individual or small group basis, independent of a formal classroom setting. The scope of the selected project is tailored to the interests of the cadet based on resources and in consultation with a faculty advisor. To develop research skills, the cadet is integral in all phases of project completion by defining objectives, studying fundamentals and background material, outlining the approach, conducting analysis, and communicating results.
