...but I still think, that while the outcome for a bad project (either badly defined or badly deviced) might cost the student's degree so it's his task to make it as good as possible. I doesn't matter at all, how the final year project is named or specified, if it's difficult or easy, if there already exists a solution, etc. A good professor wants to see HOW the student manages HIS project. He wants to see how the little brain of student works in the effort to FIND a solution, to ANALYZE alternatives, to VALUE the different alternatives. Does the student build test circuits to check the alternatives or not, how the student finds the glue, what measurements are done for that, what test circuits are built for that, what calucations has he done for that, how has he extended his horizon while doing the final year project, how is he able to discuss with the tutor if problems arise, how does he bring all his work to paper, how is he capable to demonstrate what he has done the last year, etc. etc. etc. And believe me nearly all professors have a very sensible antenna, to find out what the student is actually doing!!! If the student simply copies another's people work, then he cannot give any plausible answer to what I mentioned above! He will not have made test circuits, he will not have made any measurements needed to find the final solution. The professor will notice any break in the unbroken thread WITHOUT ANY MERCY! If a student intends to totally ruin himself with the final year project, then he should decide to copy another's people work. He will deadly fail somehow! I have seen some of these super smart students terribly failing with their final year project... Kai |
