ENGG4801 Course profile - look here for answers

ENGG4802 Course profile - look here for answers

Thesis topic selection process - The first step in starting thesis is to get a thesis topic and a supervisor

Library Workshops - You are required to hand in a progress report in week 7 with a substantial literature review.  The Library workshops held in weeks 2, 3 and 4 give you valuable tools to help find relevant literature and write it up.

Project database - public (students)

Project database - internal (ITEE supervisors and examiners)

Project database - external (non ITEE supervisors and examiners)

All details are given in the Course profile above.  The following is a quick reference.
