Teaching Method

Outline:

In this lecture, the students will acquire the basic knowledge of researches, how to operation the machines and design machines for conducting graduation research in the 5th grade.

Style:

Class format : A theme is given, and a solution is explored.
Organizing system: All teachers belonging to the Department of Mechanical Systems Engineering

Notice:

- Acquire the knowledge and skills for graduation research.
- Keep close cooperation with lectures, and conduct research.
- Lesson plans may be changed according to student's degree of understanding.
