Welcome to the Cyber Security Engineering Senior Design Capstone Showcase!
This site highlights the senior design projects created by George Mason University Cyber Security Engineering students. Each year, our seniors work with faculty mentors and industry sponsors to tackle complex, real-world challenges at the intersection of technology, security, and innovation.
Here you’ll find project posters and brochures from 2018 to 2025, reflecting the creativity, technical expertise, and dedication of our students as they prepare to enter the cybersecurity field.
” There is something special about academia—and campus in particular—where there is an optimism that you can change the world and that you can change your life. It just doesn’t exist anywhere else.”
– Jamie Wheeler, Cyber Security adjunct professor
Guidelines
- Each project is managed exactly as if the students were just hired by a company and placed on an engineering team. Students are responsible for generating the project plan and then executing the plan.
- Throughout two semesters, they are guided in technical areas by the subject-matter experts and mentored by the instructor in a host of professional and business skills such as communication, teamwork, ethics, professionalism, company values, metrics, and new business acquisition.
- By working in teams, they develop leadership and group interpersonal skills and deal with scheduling conflicts and meeting deliverables.
- Students are responsible for managing customer relationships and solving the many real-life issues that undoubtedly occur.
