CONTENT

All students in FENS faculty are required to complete a graduation project as a part of ENS 491 and ENS 492 course requirements. In these multidisciplinary projects, students will have the opportunity to apply and develop their knowledge in the area of their specialization in a team environment. ENS 491 will involve general lectures on engineering project development such as: product planning, project management, establishing product specifications, product metrics, cost analysis, concept generation, concept selection and testing, reliability, optimization, computer aided design and manufacturing, prototyping etc. Students will implement their designs in ENS 492. Students will be required to submit progress reports, and seperate final reports for ENS 491 and ENS 492. Students must have completed 80 SU credits and, in addition they must have completed the prerequisite course for their program as given below. Prerequisite courses of th programs: • Molecular Biology, Genetics, and Bioengineering: BIO 301 or BIO 303 • Computer Science and Engineering: CS 300 • Electronics Engineering: EE 202 or ENS211 • Industrial Engineering: IE 305 or IE 312 • Materials Science and Nano Engineering: MAT 312 or MAT 314 • Mechatronics Engineering: ME 301 or ME 303

LEARNING OUTCOMES

  • ability to identify, define, formulate complex scientific/engineering problems/processes,
  • experience in applying knowledge of science, mathematics and engineering to design a solution approach for a complex scientific/engineering problem under realistic constraints (such as economic, environmental, social, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability and sustainability), and in accordance with the standards of the field of specialty,
  • ability to identify modern techniques and tools to solve a problem,
  • knowledge on project management, risk management, change management, and legal consequences of engineering solutions,
  • awareness on IP management, innovation and entrepreneurship,
  • experience in effective communication of their findings by reports and presentations,
  • experience in working in multidisciplinary teams.
