42003 Engineering Graduate Project
Attendance: standard mode (on campus); block mode (offshore)
Recommended studies: Students are strongly recommended to enrol in this subject in the session immediately following the prerequisite subject, 42908 Engineering Project Preparation
Subject description
Subject learning objectives (SLOs)
Course intended learning outcomes (CILOs)
Design Oriented: FEIT graduates apply problem solving, design thinking and decision-making methodologies in new contexts or to novel problems, to explore, test, analyse and synthesise complex ideas, theories or concepts. (C.1)
Technically Proficient: FEIT graduates apply theoretical, conceptual, software and physical tools and advanced discipline knowledge to research, evaluate and predict future performance of systems characterised by complexity. (D.1)
Teaching and learning strategies
In collaboration with an academic advisor, students will implement their research plans to the Engineering Graduate Project. Students are expected to develop their learning approaches and deliverables with guidance from their academic advisor. Regular project meetings should be scheduled throughout the duration.
Students must submit a draft of the report or sections thereof to receive feedback from the academic advisor.

Assessment
Appendix to submitted work (including assessments)
It is students’ responsibility to check and verify the accuracy and integrity of the information used, and to rewrite any text provided by AI or other sources in their own words.
Students may be asked to participate in a viva voce assessment to confirm or clarify their work and/or marks.
Assessment task 1: Final Project Report
Task:
11.59 pm Monday First assessment week Submitted softcopy to Canvas. 3-5 mins Project Video submitted separately on Canvas. Video Content 1. Brief introduction to your project 2. Your methodology (your approach, including why it was chosen and is appropriate for your project) 3. Main outcomes/findings/recommendations 4. What aspects of your EGP work, if any, do you feel are exceptional, unique, or outstanding? (Optional) 5. What you learned from your EGP experience/project (at least two things) that will benefit your future employment.
Moderation of marks
Students will be provided with feedback during regular meetings with their academic advisors. The Project Proposal will receive feedback as a means of assuring the aims, methods, implementation of the project are agreed and appropriate.
In order to pass the subject, a student must achieve a minimum of P grade in Task 1
For a full list of the faculty's graduate attributes refer to the FEIT Graduate Attributes webpage.
For the contribution of subjects taken in the Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) or Master of Professional Engineering to the Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies, see the faculty's Graduate Attributes and the Engineers Australia Stage 1 Competencies webpage.
Marking criteria
Marking criteria for each assessment task is available on the Learning Management System: Canvas.
When, due to extenuating circumstances, you are unable to submit or present an assessment task on time, please contact your subject coordinator before the assessment task is due to discuss an extension. Extensions may be granted up to a maximum of 5 days (120 hours). In all cases you should have extensions confirmed in writing.
Special consideration
Late penalty
For Graded subjects:
For some assessment tasks a late penalty may not be appropriate – these are clearly indicated in the subject outline.
Such assessments receive a mark of zero if not completed by/on the specified date. Examples include:
For Pass/Fail subjects:
Work submitted late without an approved extension will only be assessed at the subject coordinator’s discretion.
Students who do not submit assessment tasks by the due dates may be referred to the Responsible Academic Officer under Student Rule 3.8.2, and a fail result may be recorded for the subject.
Request a review of a result
If you believe an error may have been made in the calculation of your result in an assessment task or the final result for the subject, it is possible to request a review of a result with the Subject Coordinator within five (5) working days of the date of release of the result.
Academic integrity is about demonstrating honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility in your studies and assessments. Studying at UTS and being part of our community means maintaining these values and acting with academic integrity at all times. This is in line with expectations for professional practice in Engineering and IT.
Create something original. This means doing all your own work from start to finish, submitting work that is original for that assessment and being honest about any data or results.
Collaborate with care. Make sure you do group work according to the guidelines from your tutor, lecturer or supervisor, study with your classmates and friends with care and keep your assessment and study notes just for you.
If you are feeling confused about academic integrity, it’s okay, just ask! We are here to help you understand academic integrity and do your assessments with confidence:
Talk to your tutor, lecturer, subject coordinator or UTS help services if you are unsure about anything academic integrity related.
Generative AI (GenAI) and academic integrity
There are a few things you must do to ensure you are maintaining academic integrity:
Check the rules for if and how you can use GenAI in your subjects and assessments via this subject outline or your subject sites in Canvas (rules will differ between subjects, so make sure you check each subject). If you are not sure, check with your tutor, lecturer or subject coordinator.
Understand how to use GenAI ethically.
Unless instructed otherwise by the Subject Coordinator, reference and acknowledge the use of GenAI in your work, providing details of the type of interactions and extent of usage.
Academic integrity breaches
A breach of academic integrity is also known as 'academic misconduct'. A breach occurs if you engage in behaviour that undermines academic integrity, such as plagiarism and cheating (see Student Rule 16.2).
Cheating includes, but is not limited to: submitting work that is not your own, copying from another student, recycling another student's work, recycling previously submitted work, and working with another student in the same cohort in a manner that exceeds the boundaries of legitimate cooperation purchasing an assignment from a website and submitting it as original work. requesting or paying someone else to write original work, such as an assignment, essay or computer program, and submitting it as original work. manipulating an assessment to avoid the UTS detection software or using a third-party service to bypass the UTS detection software.
using material or equipment that is not specified on an examination paper for use in the examination.
These are all serious forms of misconduct and penalties apply.
To help ensure academic integrity, assessments that you submit electronically may be subject to similarity detection software. Your work must be submitted in a format able to be assessed by the software (e.g. doc, pdf (text files), rtf, html). Under the Coursework Assessments Policy (section 4.27), vivas or other invigilated tasks may be used to confirm or clarify your work and/or marks, and to verify achievement of learning outcomes.
Academic liaison officer
Academic liaison officers (ALOs) are academic staff in each faculty who assist students experiencing difficulties in their studies due to: disability and/or an ongoing health condition; carer responsibilities (e.g. being a primary carer for small children or a family member with a disability); and pregnancy.
ALOs are responsible for approving adjustments to assessment arrangements for students in these categories. Students who require adjustments due to disability and/or an ongoing health condition are requested to discuss their situation with an accessibility consultant at the Accessibility Service before speaking to the relevant ALO.
