The UW-Madison Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Capstone Partnership is a cooperative arrangement among groups and institutions that develops and fosters strategic partnerships to explore engineering design challenges.
The core purpose of the consortium is to organize and implement specific student projects meeting the design needs of consortium sponsors. Effective cross-curricular collaboration provides a multi-disciplinary approach to problem solving by the student teams. The consortium facilitates interactions between UW faculty, researchers and students, and public and private partners, to address a wide range of design challenges for regional businesses, government enterprises and institutions.
