A project is a semester-long commitment to a small team building one thing. You meet weekly, and you're expected to finish. Past teams have filed patents, won national competitions, and deployed products with real users.
Each project runs as a focused team with weekly syncs and 3-4 major milestones, typically over a few semesters. They're time intensive, and they expose members to a wide range of skills and technologies.
