ENG 4001B - Research Project Part B

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2024

The Research Project is the capstone experience for the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours). In this two-semester course, students work in small groups to solve authentic engineering problems with an emphasis on professional project management and communication. Academic supervisors in each engineering school provide offerings ranging in style from detailed design-build-test projects, industry-focused projects, or research-orientated projects. Projects involve technical components including theoretical analyses, simulations, and experiments. Assessments include formal oral and written deliverables at a graduate standard. Research Project Part A and Part B must be undertaken in consecutive semesters and acceptable progress is required in Part A before continuing in Part B.

  • Assessment

    The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

    1. Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
    2. Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
    3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
    4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.

    * Note that for students who take ENG 4001A in Semester 1, the Seminars run at the end of Part A, and Ingenuity at the end of Part B. For students who take ENG 4001A in Semester 2, the order is reversed.

    In accordance with the Assessment for Coursework Programs Policy, Procedure 1a. i: An exemption has been granted from the stated requirement that group assessment activities total no more than 30%. Rationale: for a Capstone Project course, group activities form part of the learning outcomes.

    In accordance with the Assessment for Coursework Programs Policy, Procedure 1b. ii: An exemption has been granted from the stated requirement that the sum of all hurdle requirements in a single course does not exceed 60% of the total assessment for the course. Rationale: as a 6-unit course, there are hurdles on the report due at the end of each semester.

    In accordance with the Assessment for Coursework Programs Policy, Procedure 1a. iii: the maximum peer assessment adjustment to the progress report and final report marks is capped such that the total change in course mark is limited to ±5%.

    Assessment Detail
    Project plan

    The Project plan is due Monday week 4 of Part A. This short document is intended to capture the broad detail of the project to be undertaken: the aims and scope, the technical objectives, the timeline, the project risks, and the resources and budget required.

    Progress report

    The Progress report is due Monday week 12 of Part A. This group report is intended for the students to present their work to date in detail and demonstrate progress towards their stated objectives. Major elements required include a detailed literature review, outcomes to date, and a detailed project completion plan. There is a restrictive page limit based on the group size, but unlimited appendices are allowed to present supplementary material.

    Final report

    The Final report is due Monday week 13 of Part B. This group report should comprehensively document the entire project. Assessment emphasises cohesive analysis of the problem, well-executed approach, compelling results and outcomes, and discussion of limitations. There is a restrictive page limit based on the group size, but unlimited appendices are allowed to present supplementary material.

    Seminar

    The Seminar presentations are held in SWOTVAC of Semester 1. For students who take Part A in Semester 1, they will present their progress to date. For students who take Part A in Semester 2, they will present their final outcomes. Presentation length varies by group size and assessment is conducted by panels of academic staff.

    Ingenuity

    The Ingenuity exposition is held in SWOTVAC of Semester 2. For students who take Part A in Semester 1, they will present their final outcomes. For students who take Part A in Semester 2, they will present their progress to date. Ingenuity is open to the public and also has an online component. Students will be assessed on their scientific poster on display, their short online video, and via informal "interviews" by roaming industry and/or academic judges.

  • Student Feedback

    The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
