GIS3005 Individual Project - Gulf College

Aim

The project, which will be within a Computer Science, Engineering or Electronics context, is designed to allow the student to apply what has been learnt throughout the course, and to demonstrate an ability to make valid judgements and to communicate them clearly. Through work on the project, students are able to provide evidence of personal initiative and independent thought. This will provide a clear pathway to select the suitable study programme at Level.

Learning Outcome 1: Specify the nature of the problem being investigated, stating aims and objectives that are appropriate, realistic and achievable.
Learning Outcome 2: Conduct a literature review within the context of the problem.
Learning Outcome 3: Develop and apply appropriate academic theory and method in the resolution of the problem.
Learning Outcome 4: Evaluate alternative approaches appropriate to a defined problem.
Learning Outcome 5: Evaluate the research or development project and identify areas for further work.

Instructions

This individual project requires each student to conduct a research or development project as per the requirements described below. Each student is required to submit a project proposal including project title, objectives of the study, statement of the problem, research and software methodology, etc (refer to Project proposal form) to project coordinator in consultation with his/her supervisor. Students' project should belong to the current research areas of Computer Science and provide solution for the real-world problem of the research topic.

Students are required to submit an academic report on the subject area chosen. The report must be accompanied by relevant methodology, analysis, design, development, implementation, testing and evaluation of a project.

REQUIREMENTS:
At the end of Level 3 Block 2, the students must submit the following:
a. Academic Report. The report consist of sections (refer to project structure) with 3,200 words.
