Course Content
This course is an independent study under the supervision of the student's advisor. Each student is expected to identify and conduct research on appropriate areas of study for a senior design project. A specific mechanical engineering problem must be identified within the selected area of study. The results of this study must be documented and presented in the form of a project proposal.
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to enable students to use the knowledge acquired during their mechanical engineering education to solve a mechanical engineering problem, to acquire new knowledge by research, to design an innovative system, process, machine, device, installation or product that will meet the specified requirements, taking into account realistic constraints and conditions such as feasibility, economy, environmental issues, ethics, health, safety, national and / or international standards.
