This course serves as the capstone professional vehicle for senior Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering students, actively bridging the gap between thesis approval and manuscript completion. Operating within a flipped, heutagogical hybrid environment, students autonomously track field and laboratory data collection workflows while refining their engineering management practices. Through rigorous peer review, auditable data architecture construction, and live technical defenses, students master the critical communication skills required to present complex engineering problems to both technical panels and society.
