Dissertation Information

Each student is required to complete

  1. a dissertation under the supervision of an appropriate teacher(s) in this department
    AND
  2. attend and satisfactorily complete a capstone workshop in his/her respective stream/programme.

 

The overall performance of capstone will be solely determined by the dissertation.
Students failing in fulfilling the requirement (including attendance) of the workshop will need to be re-assessed or re-take the workshop.


The details of the workshops are as follows
MSc(Eng) in EEE (Power Engineering Stream) (choose one of the following)

  • Power Systems Simulation
  • Power Electronics Simulation

MSc(Eng) in EEE (Communications Engineering and General Stream) (choose one of the following)

  • Embedded System using Field Programming Gate Arrays (FPGA)
  • Apps Programming

MSc(Eng) in EnergyE

  • Simulation Techniques for Renewable Energy Systems

 

The workshops will normally be held in Part I Lab (LG-205, Chow Yei Ching Building) in the first 6 weeks of the first and second semesters (depending on the total number of students enrolled). In general, full-time students are given preference to take the workshop in the first semester while part-time students are given preference to take the workshop in the second semester. Details of re-assessment will be announced by instructors of the workshop.

Students should first enroll in a dissertation capstone workshop (ELEC7021/EMEE7001) of their respective stream/programme in the online enrollment system. Meanwhile, students may contact the appropriate supervisors directly for more details about the dissertation or for self-proposed dissertation. Please visit the following link for possible dissertation topics offered by the EEE Department, http://intranet.eee.hku.hk/mscproject/projlist.asp.

The list will be updated by approximately in the middle of September each year. If both the supervisor and student agree to work on a given dissertation, the student should complete and return a dissertation supervisor confirmation form (which can be downloaded in the following link) to the Department.

The dissertation may last for one year or slightly longer time. For submission of the final dissertation, the students are required to submit two hardcopies and upload the softcopy to the Department (http://appsvr.eee.hku.hk/mscproj/default.htm) and HKU Moodle (Maximum File Size: 20MB). Moreover, it is required to give an oral presentation at the end of the dissertation for assessment.   (Normally, the dissertation marks will be considered immediately after the teaching period at each semester.)
