The ME project topic area chosen by the student may be in any technical area covered by the interests and expertise of the academic staff of the School who will act as the project supervisors. In addition the course requires information literacy, revision and explicit application of project management concepts, safety considerations, and risk mitigation, problem analysis and synthesis. Written and oral communications is also required – the students will deliver professional seminar presentations on their chosen research topic and a progress report outlining the motivation, background and selected research methodology that will be employed in ME Project B.
