Electrical and Electronic Engineering Honours Project 2

Course aim

To provide students with experience and develop their competence in the process of implementing an electrical or electronic engineering system in a team project setting, assessing the system’s performance, and reporting on findings and outcomes. To introduce students to engineering research.

Course content

Students will individually, or as a small consortium, finalise the system design, and implement it through constructing the system, setting it to work, testing its performance against the original requirements and specifications, and reporting on the findings, outcomes and significance of their achievements, and presenting the final product to the sponsor and the general public. The allocated supervisor will guide the project team through steps to ensure that the team completes the project in the available time.
Students will undertake a research investigation related to their project, or other approved aspect of electrical or electronic engineering, and prepare a research paper.
