In the Research Project, students undertake a substantial piece of independent research under supervision of appointed supervisor/s. Research projects may consist of application of advanced laboratory, field or computer techniques to analyse and design solutions for an engineering problem. Research topics are often based on real world problems in cooperation with local and regional industries. Research Project 1 (EG5311) is a 3 credit point subject. This is the first part of the Research Project where students are required to choose a research topic, conduct a comprehensive literature review, define scope and objectives of the research, define methodologies to achieve the objectives, prepare detailed project planning and conduct preliminary study. Students are required to submit a research proposal and give a research proposal seminar
