General Information

Overview

The rapid development of technology continually influences and challenges how engineers practice. In this unit, you will learn about cutting-edge engineering projects incorporating multi-disciplinary teams, innovative methods to advance the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals, and the application of big data, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things. The unit will also present future expectations for practicing engineers such as becoming a Registered Professional Engineer, understanding risk management in a changing world, complying with legislation, and promoting safety in engineering design and workplace operations.

Recommendation

This good practice should be maintained.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students have commented that the application of the topics presented in this unit to real-world engineering projects was not clear.

Recommendation

In future offerings, it is suggested that the application of topics presented during each week's guest lectures should involve real engineering projects.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students have requested a revision of the quiz questions (assessment one) to ensure they are more relevant to the discussed contents.

Recommendation

In future offerings, it is recommended that quiz questions should be revised to better align with the content covered over the four weeks.

Feedback from SUTE

Feedback

Students have requested a revision of the marking criteria for assignments 2 and 3, as well as more detailed feedback on their assessments (useful feedback).

Recommendation

In future offerings, it is recommended to revise the marking rubrics for assignments 2 and 3 which should enhance clarity and provide more constructive feedback for students' work.
