Mentorship

1.) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fmdzlWyzenRCBV__ssFuoojPW1i-1EvZX8YWRcAE-Bc/edit#gid=472874349

2.) Del Shindell (President of Sygmatech Inc.)   Cell: (909)-576-1150

3.)      1.) How is the Senior Project setup?

           

          2.) What is the total amount of hours that you need to spend with a mentor?

          3.) Is there a final presentation you must do that explains what you've done over the course of your 

                project?

          4.) Can I attend the final presentation? 

4.) The most important thing I gained from this experience was learning the concepts on how the tracking devices transmit data through satellites to the tracking website. I believe this is important because if you're not able to grasp the concept on how something works than you won't know how to work with it.

5.) My senior project topic is GPS Vehicle Tracking. The summer mentorship that I completed along with my mentor Del Shindell helped me choose this topic because my mentor has worked with satellite tracking systems his entire life and he is very knowledgeable in his profession. Having someone who knows and has a passion for what their doing makes a big difference when working with them. Therefore I decided to work with my mentor to research and learn his profession.
