Prerequisite Modules:
Rationale and Purpose of the Module:
To undertake a significant project, which involves an advanced design and implementation task related to Electronic and Computer Engineering.
This module is M graded with the preceding Master of Engineering Project 1 Module (Module id 3256)
Syllabus:
The project is undertaken during Year 5 of the M.E. in Electronic and Computer Engineering. Projects are normally undertaken individually by students (although group project work is also allowed). This module completes a series of three that involves the Project Qualifier in Year 4, Semester 2 and the Integrated Master of Engineering project module in Year 5, Semester 1. Each project student (or project group) works under the supervision of an academic staff member who is responsible for the overall direction of the project. The project will be a significant
engineering task, involving research, design and implementation related to a selected problem in the area of Electronic and Computer Engineering.
Learning Outcomes:
Cognitive (Knowledge, Understanding, Application, Analysis, Evaluation, Synthesis)
At the end of this module students will have :-
Used the research literature and other resources to discover the state of the art in a chosen sub field of Electronic and Computer Engineering.
Implemented the work plan that has been developed in Year 4 during the Masters Project Qualifier module.
Formulate, design, implement and test a particular engineering approach (or approaches where appropriate) to the solution of new problems suggested by the work plan that the student has developed.
Critically evaluated and assessed their work through rigorous comparison of performance with published literature in the field.
Presented their work in a formal manner by means of an interim and final presentation of the project milestones and deliverables. Moreover the students will have completed a report that outlines the progress, outcomes and conclusions of the project.
