Delivering this Semester?
If your team plans to deliver your project this semester, be sure to complete the EPICS delivery checklist. This includes projects that have final deliverables of non-tangible products (project plans, formal recommendations, etc). Find more information on the delivery process at https://engineering.purdue.edu/EPICS/teams/team-documents/project-delivery. Remember, without a checklist, you will not receive an EPICS delivery t-shirt.
