Engineering Capstone Experience B

Course aim

To enable graduates to develop the skills required by engineering professionals in negotiating, planning, designing, constructing, implementing, testing and reporting engineering developments, schemes or designs. The students will complete one of the projects that was commenced in Engineering Capstone Experience A.

Course content

The course will utilise real projects provided by industry with industrial representatives acting as clients to the students. Different developments or projects will be offered each year. Students will develop a detailed design and construction (where appropriate) of the feasible solution developed in Engineering Capstone Experience A. The course is undertaken by the class acting as consulting companies with the management and organisation of that company being the responsibility of the students. Regular meetings with the lecturers and industry clients will review progress and guide the teams in the projects. Significant emphasis will be placed on the social, environmental, international, political and economic contexts applicable to each project.
