The Final Year Project, coded MEK401 and MEK402, is a compulsory two-term course in the final year of the Mechatronics Engineering undergraduate programme. This course is worth 5 ECTS credits and is a practice-oriented module designed to enable students to develop a comprehensive project by applying the theoretical knowledge and engineering skills they have acquired throughout their undergraduate studies to real-world problems.
As part of the course, students analyse an engineering problem they have identified under the guidance of an academic supervisor using scientific methods, and carry out processes such as design, modelling, simulation, experimental work or prototype development. They present the results obtained from this process in the form of a technical report and an oral presentation. This process aims to prepare students for professional and academic life by developing their skills in conducting research, problem-solving, project management, teamwork, technical reporting and effective presentation.
