BME 4950 Senior Projects I & ECE 4800 Senior Design I
Oral Proposal
You will present your project proposal to the faculty and peers for their review and approval.
Your presentation should be approximately 8 minutes and you should expect to answer
questions for approximately 10 minutes. A scoring rubric is shown on the
following pages of this document.
Format:
Your oral presentation should focus on presenting the actual design problem and your
proposed solution. You should include sufficient background to establish the significance and
relevance of the project but be careful not to focus too much in this area. The primary goal of
the presentation is to convince your audience that you have a design that is rational and that
you have a reasonable and sufficiently detailed approach to solving the problem. All team
members should participate in the presentation.
Attire:
Your attire should be consistent with giving a presentation to your employer or at a
conference. Shorts and/or jeans are not appropriate.
Media:
You should use powerpoint (or a similar tool) to deliver your presentation. While professional
slides are expected do not overproduce the slides but rather focus on content and being
personally prepared.
Scoring:
Assessment of your peer’s work is required. While this task may be new to many students
please keep in mind that the objective is to provide constructive and critical reviews that
will aid your peers. You will complete an evaluation of the PDR presentations for at least 3
teams. Failure to follow these instructions will result in a grade of zero. Your comments should
address at least the following: (1) Was the background and establishment of need sufficient?
(2) What was the strength of the design? (3) Was the description of the concept complete? (4)
What was missing or could have been improved in the design?
