Overview

This is the capstone project course for the Associate Degree in Engineering students normally complete it during their last semester of study, or after a minimum of 12 courses in the program have been successfully completed. This project course both differentiates this program from the Bachelor of Engineering Technology program and satisfies registration requirements as an Engineering Associate of Engineers Australia (EA).

Students will work in small teams on design-based projects that enable them to demonstrate achievement of the graduate attributes required for an Engineering Associate. Each group of students will work on a discipline-related project for which they will collectively complete a design solution, within the specified time constraints. Suggested project topics from industry are welcome, but may not be offered in the same year as proposed to ensure thorough vetting by the staffing team. Working in teams will reinforce students' group interaction skills such as negotiation and interactive thinking. The available projects will require students to apply discipline-specific skills and knowledge acquired during their Associate Degree program.
