Objectives of the Course Upon successful completion of the course, students are expected to have the following competencies:nalyze the problem, and conducting an effective literature survey and be able to contrast and critique related work. Plan effectively for the various project lifecycle activities, and then develop an efficient solution.Be able to work effectively as part of a team with colleagues and advisor.Manage one's own learning and development, including time management and organizational skills.Appreciate the need for continuing professional development.
Course Content The student designs complex systems such as reinforced concrete or steel structure, hydraulic system, geotechnical design based on real data, and makes economic analysis of these designs. After the graduation paper topics in this scope are determined, the student completes the graduation paper by being included in a randomly formed team of 3-5 people. A chairman is chosen for the team. A faculty member supervises the team. Within the scope of the content described above, the students are asked to provide the site plan, the project design stages, the architectural project of the design, the design project, the analysis results, the detailed drawings, the material information, the results of the environmental impact assessment, economic analysis, quantity, item numbers and cost calculations with the current unit price. Graduation project booklet is prepared in accordance with the provided guidelines. In addition, students prepare a presentation CD and attach it to the assignment to be submitted, all team members present their work to the admission committee.
