Course Objectives: | This course is designed to provide a project environment through which students practice and integrate what they have learned throughout their undergraduate program. The course is intended to provide students of Mechatronics Engineering with an insight on how to prepare and present a Technical Proposal and a Technical Report, how to design, conduct and manage a scientific study, and, if applicable, how to plan and implement a product development process. Other objectives of the course include teaching the skills for finding and reducing information, identifying and allocating resources and also providing awareness for work ethics, academic honesty and constructive criticism. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; I- . Apply the fundamentals of mechatronics engineering into the design, analysis and evaluation of mechatronics systems II. Develop a suitable and effective method to carry out a specified project work III. Construct an implementation (solution) procedure to obtain reproducible results IV. Summarize the findings of a project work into a well-written report V. Display competence in giving effective oral presentations VI. Recognize the need for being engaged in a life-long learning process VII. Develop academic honesty concept VIII. A Design an experimental system, components of a resarch project or a process and meet desired needs of the project IX- Solve Mechatronics engineering problems through fundamental engineering concepts |
Concept of a project, Technique of writing a Technical Report, Selecting a subject, Literature Survey, Application of the Method, Oral Presentation and submission of a final report. |
