Project-Based Learning Philosophy
The department's philosophy on project-based learning is rooted in the belief that meaningful learning occurs when students engage in authentic, real-world tasks that require critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Projects are designed to be interdisciplinary, allowing students to connect different areas of knowledge while addressing complex issues.
Mini-projects are integrated throughout the curriculum, beginning in the first semester with foundational assignments that build toward more complex capstone projects in later semesters. These projects emphasize collaboration, reflection, and iterative improvement, mirroring real-world professional practices.
The final-year thesis or capstone project is a significant component of the program, requiring students to demonstrate their ability to conduct independent research, apply theoretical knowledge, and communicate findings effectively. Students select topics in consultation with faculty mentors, ensuring alignment with both academic rigor and personal interest.
Projects are evaluated using rubrics that assess content knowledge, critical thinking, communication skills, and ethical considerations. This approach ensures that students not only acquire technical competencies but also develop the soft skills necessary for success in educational roles.
