Chemical engineering laboratory project

6 points + 30 tutorials, 30 laboratory hours + First semester + Clayton + Prerequisites: CHE3119

Objectives The student is expected to develop a deeper understanding of the phenomena and principles of chemical engineering covered in lectures through participating in a project; the ability to apply acquired skills to investigate a complex process with limited support from the project supervisor; the ability to formulate a project proposal; the ability to plan and organise resources efficiently to bring the project to a successful and timely conclusion; interpersonal and management skills by having a significant part of the subject assessment based on group performance; higher levels of proficiency in computer programming and in technical reporting; a readiness to review critically their own work and the work of other group members; and the confidence to analyse and solve large complex problems.

Synopsis Project topics will depend on the supervisors' interests. Projects can range from experimental (based in the Department's laboratories or at an industrial plant) to analytical (development of a program or use of a computer package).

Assessment Project: 100% (proposal 10%, progress report 15%, final report 60%, seminar 15%)
