It can expose students in real-life work environment, and help them to integrate thetheoretical knowledge learned in the classroom with best practices in the industry [1]. This isparticularly necessary in practical fields like construction [2]. The complexity of projects and thedynamic nature of the work

Many of the AIMS courses provide hands-on projects designed to aid students indeveloping a deeper understanding of the material, contributing to improved retention ofknowledge gained, and encouraging collaboration amongst students. An example project fromthe course “Artificial Intelligence in Engineering” presented groups of students with thechallenge of identifying general ship types with the use of computer vision and ConvolutionalNeural Networks (CNN). Students selected ships from an online source to form their dataset onwhich the CNN was initially trained. The dataset was subsequently expanded through dataaugmentation, which was used to improve the CNN’s accuracy. In this project, students hadsome freedom in
