Graduation Project (1)

Course Description: Students, as part of a team and under the supervision of one or more faculty members, will be assigned to design an applied project that simulates the real work environment they will encounter after graduation. The project must be comprehensive and include all necessary preliminary studies, final design drawings, quantity surveys, and the total project cost. The engineering design project will last for one semester. By the end of this course, students are expected to be able to perform the following tasks: 1. Identify and formulate engineering problems. 2. Gather and extract relevant information through internet and library research. 3. Work effectively within a team. 4. Generate alternative solutions to engineering problems, and then identify the appropriate and feasible solution among the different alternatives. 5. Prepare a conceptual/preliminary design for a component or system that meets the required needs. 6. Prepare and deliver effective presentations.

Credit hours: 3

Objectives of the course :
