Course Reflection

Throughout the creation of my CPEP and Senior Thesis, I was challenged and my knowledge was tested.  However, one of the most beneficial aspects of this thesis has been the ability to apply concepts learned throughout my five year degree at Penn State.  The overall design process that was taken to complete this thesis, reflected that of a professional design office which has helped me prepare for future experiences in my career.  I gained a deeper understanding of structures and how to manage the design of them.  In addition, other courses outside of my option had to be utilized which helped me gain the ability to consider all systems in the building process.
