Content
This unit enables students to conduct and construct an engineering research project from first principles. It provides direction into production of an engineering research project specification as well as an extended literature review. Moreover, it uses the concept of research methodologies as a vehicle for student self-directed learning and prepares them for tackling an extended project from conception through construction and evaluation ultimately to realisation.
