Abstract

A client database was constructed to improve the communication among students, faculty, teaching assistants, client coordinators and clients in the University of Connecticut (UConn) Electrical and Systems Engineering senior design class projects that aid persons with disabilities. Students use the database for selecting clients to interview. After the interview, the students enter potential projects into the database. Projects selected by students are so noted in the database. The database has proved to be an effective communication tool
