Overall Educational Objective

To learn to perform literature review about an Electrical and Electronics Engineering topic and to define an engineering problem and to propose a solution for the engineering problem by using the knowledge and skills acquired through previous classes.

Course Description

This course is the first stage of a one-year senior design project course. In senior design project, the students work in project teams for a capstone design project on a specific topic in any field of Electrical and Electronics Engineering. In this course, the students are expected to define an engineering problem and to propose a solution for an engineering problem. Students will first perform a literature survey on the real-life problem that they selected at the beginning of the semester. Then, students will propose a solution to that problem under the supervision of their advisors.

Course Learning Outcomes and Competences

Upon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:
1) identify a practical real-life engineering problem by using the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for practice;
2) analyze the contemporary issues related to the selected problem;
3) create a conceptual design that will solve the considered problem by including engineering standards, realistic constraints and conditions;
4) practice within a team to complete the engineering design;
5) define professional and ethical responsibility followed during a design process;
6) appreciate legal consequences of electrical and electronics engineering applications and their effects within global, economic, environmental, and societal context;
7) demonstrate the engineering design with a well-organized written report and presentation.
