Research and investigation are important activities that professional engineers undertake, which involve using engineering methods, principles and processes to find information, identify knowledge gaps, and apply strategies for solving novel problems to meet stakeholders' needs. This unit introduces you to this field and continues your development as a learned professional. You will learn about critical analysis and reporting of information and findings, conveying research ideas, and analysis and visual presentation of data, while further developing your professional skills in communication and engineering teamwork. Capstone units EGH400-1 Research Project 1 and EGH400-2 Research Project 2 will build on this unit. You will learn to prepare for Engineering Work Placement as a Career Episode which will be assessed in EGH400-2.","title-full":"EGH404 Research in Engineering Practice","title-short":"Research in Engineering Practice","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=EGH404&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=EGH404","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=EGH404"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
