The Industrial Engineering Department is seeking sponsors for our Senior Design Program. By becoming a sponsor, you will help mentor a senior design team. Details for becoming a sponsor are as follows:

Step 1:

Identify a problem within your organization for which an industrial engineering student team may help to find a solution. Ideal projects are those that utilize engineering skills, are integrative in nature, and are meaningful to both your organization and the student team.

Step 2:

Submit a project Sponsor Information

You can use the project proposal template for guidance. Contact Dr. Scott Streiner (scs147@pitt.edu) if you have further questions. We set up projects in July for the Fall semester and in October for the Spring semester.

Step 3:

Meet your new team members. We will assemble a team of 4-5 industrial engineering seniors who will help you complete your project during a 15-week semester team. Students will work along with your staff and a faculty mentor to assess and fill your company's needs.
