ENG80001 Engineering Master Thesis - Research Project

PART B: Your Unit in more detail

Students are required to select and confirm a project by week 1. Working with supervisor the signed Project Confirmation Form must be submitted via CANVAS online submission system before due date.
Students need to discuss with respective supervisor normally once per week.

Research Plan

The purpose of the research plan is to ensure that students have a clear understanding of what are expected to achieve at the end of the project. Students need to focus on the novelty, motivations and aims of the project, the methodologies that will be used in the project, and the expected outcomes that could benefit the community. Research timeline should be proposed in terms of planned activities to demonstrate the project is achievable with available time and resources.

Final Presentation/ Project Demonstration

Final presentations will be given as conference-style presentations that need to be focused on the important findings of the project. These presentations should:
• Be aimed at an audience of student peers, academics and invited industry representatives – an educated, but non-expert audience.

• Present the background to the work, describing the general area and showing how the particular research and design questions posed fit into this wider context, and present the aims of the project.
• Present the results of the project, and any conclusions that can be drawn from the work.
