It is worth to remember, thatan engineer is a problem solver - designing large or not so systems, operating engineering systems likecommunication services, power systems, or managing systems and services. Therefore, an engineershould be a designer, a thinker, and a systems integrator. Hence, the education should inculcate intostudents various aspects such as engineering principles, standards and practices, design methods,modeling and optimization skills, systems analysis, integration techniques and new technologies. Anengineer can become a thinker or an innovator only if he or she is allowed to independently put togetherall applied science concepts to solve a practical problem, by considering every alternative

They are expected toapply knowledge from prerequisite and concurrent courses, learn how to do research anddocument all their work via written technical reports. Furthermore, they acquire practice andtheoretical understanding through design and implementation.In this course students are required for the first time to complete a full design for a project oftheir own instead
