Students are also required to complete a capstone Project (group work) and an individual final year project. The capstone project is introduced to allow students to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of engineering and management principles, and work as a member and leader in a team to manage projects in multidisciplinary environments. Meanwhile, the final year project is an initiative to polish independent learning ability and creative design skills to produced quality graduates. Moreover, Technopreneurship is introduced to equip students with good managerial skills along with technological traits. Students are also prepared for the challenging and competitive environment by following courses like Engineer in Society, Project Management, and also the state of the art technology in a special course named Selected Topics. Students are required to complete one semester Industrial Attachment or Training that has been scheduled in semester 7.
