General Information

Overview

Generating ideas, pitching a project proposal, assembling a design team, and creating a development plan are vital skills that enable engineers to establish new projects. This unit takes you through the creative process of prototyping in consultation with stakeholders. Your team must enhance your design idea by seeking external input through continued stakeholder interactions and sharing of several functional prototypes. You will pitch and demonstrate your final design to an audience of peers and professional engineers. You will apply relevant fundamental discipline knowledge and skills, as well as, project management principles. Completing this unit will enable you to discover your creativity while honing skills exhibited by productive and innovative engineers.

Attendance Requirements

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes - in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

The assignment templated was great and saved a lot of time.

Recommendation

The word templates should continue to be available for student use.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

It wasn't clear whether a physical prototype is to be built or not.

Recommendation

We do require some evidence of prototyping. Acceptable prototypes include a reduced-scale physical prototype, computer-aided drawing, 3D printed prototypes, etc. These acceptable types should be discussed better with students.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Distant learning can be challenging during group work.

Recommendation

The cloud-based project management tool, Asana, was introduced for efficient communication among group members. More focus on how this tool can help distant students communicate and work together should be discussed in class.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

More help is needed for the final assessment.

Recommendation

An additional lecture should be planned to focus on the requirements of the final assessment.
