FIRST & SECOND YEAR PROJECTS

In the ever-evolving fields of engineering and architectural design, hands-on learning is essential for developing technical expertise and problem-solving skills. These immersive experiences go beyond theory, allowing students to apply design principles, structural analysis, and cutting-edge technology in real-world scenarios. Through collaborative projects, digital modeling, and engineering simulations, students gain a deeper understanding of industry practices while refining their ability to think critically and adapt to challenges. By actively engaging in design, construction, and prototyping, they build the confidence and technical proficiency needed for success in the field.

3D PRINTING FOR PROTOTYPING

Students design small-scale architectural models and use 3D printing technology to bring their creations to life. They learn about rapid prototyping and digital fabrication techniques, refining their designs through iteration and structural analysis. This hands-on project helps students understand the relationship between digital modeling and real-world construction, preparing them for careers in architecture, engineering, and industrial design.

INDUSTRY PARTNER PROJECT

CYBER SECURITY WORKSHOP

Students participate in a hands- on workshop where they learn fundamental cybersecurity concepts, such as encryption, network security, and password management. They engage in practical exercises to understand how to protect personal and organizational data from cyber threats. In collaboration with Bath Iron Works (BIW) , students tackle real-world marine engineering challenges, applying CAD software to design and simulate naval structures. They analyze structural performance, hydrodynamics, and material efficiency, learning how ships are engineered to withstand oceanic conditions. This project provides valuable hands-on experience in naval architecture, preparing students for careers in marine engineering,

SMART CITY PROJECT

Students conceptualize and design a miniature smart city, integrating efficient transportation networks, renewable energy solutions, and advanced building automation systems. This project challenges them to apply sustainable design principles, urban planning strategies, and innovative engineering solutions to create a functional, eco-friendly, and technologically advanced city model.
