Undergraduate - UnitMEC4402 - Final year project - Thesis

Refer to the specific census and withdrawal dates for the semester(s) in which this unit is offered.

Synopsis

In this unit, together with MEC4401, students undertake a self-guided learning task in the form of a project. It is a full year project of either a major design, theoretical, or experimental investigation. The project may be undertaken either within the department or externally with a company or research organisation. In either case, an academic member of staff will act as the supervisor. While some projects may benefit from group based work it is expected that students will work individually on each project. For assessment purposes, students are required to submit a research paper, a final report and a poster outlining the research work completed and to participate in short quizzes.
