Importance of Final Year Project
Culmination of your degree
Opportunity to demonstrate knowledge & skills you have acquired
Project Management
Analytical Skills – taking a complex problem and devising a practical solution
Communication Skills – preparation of web sites, reports and a presentation
Opportunity to demonstrate the qualities of a degree qualified Engineer
Should not attempt other courses while taking Final Year Project

How to find a projectSince the kind of project undertaken is very diverse, there are a number of ways to find a suitable project including:
Approaching your employer with an idea related to an aspect of your own work or their operations in general. Write a project proposal.
In consultation with PSB and University staff, developing an idea based upon an interest of your own. Write a project proposal.
Consulting the list of Final Year Projects provided by the Newcastle Course Coordinator.
Assessment will reflect the difficulty of the Project

Final Year Project Course Structure
Work on a Major Project – from problem definition to conclusion
Group or Individual projects.
Two supervisors – one in Singapore & one in Newcastle
Self directed – Time and Project Management
Risk Management of Project
ask questions
Make decisions and move on
Formal lecture series
Part A – 10 credit points (Fail or NA) Part B – 20 credit points

Supervision
You will be allocated 2 supervisors
Your Singapore (local) supervisor will provide the day to day management of your project and therefore will provide you with the technical support you need for your project.
Your Newcastle supervisor is allocated to approve the academic content and scope of the project and then to support the local supervisors with management and technical issues.
NOTE: Your first contact point for your project is therefore your local supervisor.

Final Year Project Support Structure
1. Local Supervisor: Day-to-day technical management. MEET weekly.
2. Newcastle Supervisor: Approval and Assessment. CONTACT monthly.
Additionally:
3. Engineering or Technical Support: UoN & PSB Technical Support Team
Note: Your first point of call for technical questions is your local supervisor. Your local supervisor will contact the Newcastle supervisor on a regular basis.

Group Projects
Each student should have a clear role and area of responsibility that leads to a definable contribution to the project outcomes and project report.
Record keeping by individual students in a Professional Journal needs to be of a high standard
Each student whether in a group or not is to hand in their own report.
NOTE: Individuals will be marked rather than groups

If you have a project you would like to do then you need to submit a project proposal.
UoN/PSB offered Projects
Projects have been developed for groups consisting of: Of up to 3 people
Refer to Final Year Project Proposal List
Submission of Project Preferences: 1 February 2005
![Page 12: School of Electrical Engineering & Computer Science Final Year Projects Final Year Project Coordinator – Newcastle Laboratory Manager - Newcastle Gunilla.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d3f5503460f94a18f5e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Some Advise on Design
Take sometime to develop a project plan and discuss this with your supervisor.
Break the project and individual tasks into manageable parts.
Make sure you test each new addition to your project thoroughly.
Don’t test everything at once.
![Page 13: School of Electrical Engineering & Computer Science Final Year Projects Final Year Project Coordinator – Newcastle Laboratory Manager - Newcastle Gunilla.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042821/56649d3f5503460f94a18f5e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Plagiarism
Please be warned, we will be thoroughly checking submitted work for Plagiarism.
How will we do this?
eg. for work submitted as part of a project we will:
Upload all code and digital designs from hardware,
Compile all code and digital designs that are submitted for marking,
Compared Uploaded code to Compiled
Compare submitted work to work submitted by other groups
Compare submitted work to information available on internet.
If you use someone else’s work then please reference it in your report.

Design Considerations
Please be careful with equipment.
For some designs you will need to implement bi-directional buses.
If 2 devices are connected together and both are configured as outputs then 1 device will be destroyed. Please simulate and check designs before testing.
If you are unsure please see your supervisor.
