Description

A second project-based course undertaken by all students not proceeding to the award of honours. Working in groups of four, students undertake a major multi-disciplinary design project involving discipline areas that are different from those dealt with in CVEN4002 Design Practice A. Each group works on a unique project supervised by a member of the academic staff. The aim of the project is to provide students with a further opportunity to work on real-world problems and to develop their creative design skills. The design project will provide students with the opportunity to integrate the material learnt in several sub-disciplines of civil or environmental engineering. The objective is to develop the students' design, teamwork, managerial and self-directed learning skills.
