Undergraduate Portfolio - Computer Engineering

Each quarter, the Computer Engineering Undergraduate Committee will review the portfolios of students wishing to graduate that quarter. These portfolios must be turned in electronically (use form below) by the last day of the quarter and must include the following:

A hardware-oriented project report
A software-oriented project report (Verilog and VHDL are not software)
A third Project report of the student's selection
The completed questionnaire on this page

If a project report is associated with a course, it must be the final report of an upper-division or graduate course (excluding Computer Engineering 100/L) you completed. One of the reports must be the result of a multi-disciplinary project. One of the reports must be the result of an individual project. One of the reports must be the result of your capstone design project. Submissions must be in pdf format (either scanned or native). Students whose submissions are deemed inadequate, either in presentation or in content, may be required to revise and rewrite the portfolio or to complete an additional project course.

Your portfolio will be evaluated by CE faculty members using this form. Historically, this was evaluated using an older form.

NOTE: Your files must be in PDF format; anything else will be rejected. Uploading large files over a slow connection will take a long time. Please be patient. If your browser times out, you may have to start over again. You will receive an e-mail verifying that your file(s) have been received. There is a 50 megabyte limit on the size of ALL your files combined. If your PDF files are too large, please read our instructions on how to make them smaller.

If you cannot use this form, e-mail your portfolio file(s) and information to .

When do you plan to graduate?

Hardware Report (Report A): *

Briefly describe what problem you were solving and how this topic appropriately demonstrates your engineering abilities. Was the problem chosen for you by an instructor, or did you pick the problem?: *

Example: This report details a home security system designed for a single family home. Home security systems require a system including communication software and hardware together with appropriate algorithms. My group picked this topic because one of us had been the subject of a burglary, and we thought we could make a better system than we could buy.

Briefly indicate what you had to learn beyond your formal academic coursework in order to finish your project.: *

Example: This report required me to learn the use of audio-editing software and to become much more comfortable with Fourier Transforms...

If this was a joint project, please describe your contribution to the project.:

Software Report (Report B) (Verilog and VHDL are not considered software): *

Example: This report details a multi-user game. Multi-user games require human-computer interfaces, multiprocessing, client-server archetecture, and digital media. My group picked this topic because one of our majors was a game design major and made the rest of us enthusiastic about making a new game.

Briefly indicate what you had to learn beyond your formal academic coursework in order to finish your project.: *

Example: This report required me to learn the use of audio-editing software and to become much more comfortable with Fourier Transforms...

If this was a joint project, please describe your contribution to the project.:

Third Report (Report C): *

Briefly indicate what you had to learn beyond your formal academic coursework in order to finish your project.: *

Example: This report required me to learn the use of audio-editing software and to become much more comfortable with Fourier Transforms...

If this was a joint project, please describe your contribution to the project.:

Overview Questions

Which of the three reports best reflects an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams? Please list names and majors of all participants. If they are CE majors, to the best of your ability, please indicate their concentration.: *

Example: Report A was my multidisciplinary project. The participants were Sammy Slug, EE; Sheila Seal, CE—networks; and Waldo Walrus, CS.

Which of your submitted reports best demonstrates the application of knowledge gained from the sciences? Which of your submitted reports best demonstrates the application of mathematical principle?: *

Example: Report A required an understanding of electromagnetics. Report C used a lot of differential equations and linear algebra.

Which of your submitted reports best reflects your ability to communicate in writing? Which of the reports included material that you also presented as part of an oral or poster presentation (please indicate the forum in which it was presented)?: *

Example: Report B. I presented this material orally at the CE123B design competition.

Which of your submitted reports best reflects a concern for social or environmental issues? Briefly describe the issues you addressed.: *

Example: Report C. My team designed a remote controlled landmine detecting unit. This could potentially save thousands of lives in countries afflicted by unexploded landmines.

Please provide a list of software and hardware systems you used to produce your projects.: *

Example: For Report C, I used matlab, Autocad, the lasercutter, a rom programmer, and an HC11 microprocessor.
