Synopsis

This project course requires the analysis and synthesis of problems in mathematics and application of the various principles learnt to solve practical problems in an academic manner under the supervision of a project tutor. The project may take any one or a combination of the following forms: feasibility study, computer modeling and analysis, design and construction, testing and experimental investigation. The project thesis is submitted individually and runs over two semesters. MTH499 can only be taken by SUSS invited honours students from January 2011 (begining honours year in 2011).

Level: 4
Credit Units: 10
Presentation Pattern: EVERY REGULAR SEMESTER
