The final year is dominated by the final year thesis project and elective topics. The elective components permit students to shape their own direction as preparation for a future career. Due to diverse specialties of our lecturers, students have opportunity to specialize in a wide range of fields. At the end of the thesis project, the students are obliged to present and defend their project. The Department organizes visits to industry every year to expose students to a commercial working environment. There are also lectures from the industry in every semester to enable students to hear first-hand from prominent biomedical engineers.

This is done via multiple channels and methods. At(what students can do) rather than theprocess (what instructors did). This is the course level, there is formative assessment via discussion,believed to enhance learning, and henceproduce better graduates. For OBE to be assignment, quizzes etc., in addition to the summativesuccessful, it is critical to prescribe theexpected outcomes, to measure them assessment in the final examination.
