| Brief description of the Unit |
| The unit covers a basic process in engineering design, where students will be equipped with professional skills through steps-by-steps in solving real-world engineering problems. Students will gain an understanding in some fundamental principles in mathematics, physics and engineering sciences and competency in the technical tools and techniques required to successfully complete an engineering project. Moreover, by collaborating with other students in conducting, managing and delivering the engineering project, students will develop broad skill sets in communication, management, professional documentation and oral presentations which are strongly desired by industry. |
