First year engineering research project

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers around seeking ideas for a first-year engineering research project, specifically in mechanical engineering. Participants emphasize the importance of narrowing down interests and concepts, suggesting that the project can be theoretical or experimental. Key areas of interest mentioned include mechanics and electrodynamics, highlighting the need for personal engagement in selecting a research topic. Ultimately, the discussion underscores the necessity for students to identify their specific interests to guide their project selection.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of core engineering subjects, particularly mechanics and electrodynamics.
  • Familiarity with research methodologies, both theoretical and experimental.
  • Ability to articulate personal interests and areas of focus within engineering.
  • Basic knowledge of project development and reporting in engineering contexts.
NEXT STEPS
  • Explore research topics in mechanics, such as fluid dynamics or material properties.
  • Investigate theoretical concepts in electrodynamics, focusing on electromagnetic fields.
  • Review existing engineering projects related to composite materials and their applications.
  • Learn about effective research methodologies and project presentation techniques.
USEFUL FOR

First-year engineering students, particularly those in mechanical engineering, who are seeking guidance on selecting and developing research projects based on their interests and core subjects.

HYE,CAN anyone give me an idea for first year engineering research project.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
doesn't Even One Person Have An Idea
 
What engineering are you in? That may help us think of an idea.
 
mechanical
 
Is this project for any particular class or what? Does it have to involve any particular concepts? Does it need to be experimental or is it to show a concept?
 
in first year,we r taught only core subjects,and it should be a research project based on it.
 
You're not helping us to narrow down any ideas. What courses have you taken and what sort of detail of research are we talking about here? You have to have some sort of idea for what general area of interest you want to go in.
 
Core Subjects? That narrows it down to anywhere between The Illiad and Organic Chemistry to Volumes of Revolutions.
 
see,it need not be a workiing project,it could be theereotical also.For the range u may take it as anything without going well within the course of these different engineering subjects

why isn't anyone responding now?
 
  • #11
Because you haven't given us an idea what general areas interest you.

There are thousands (millions even) of projects and reports which could be researched and written.
 
  • #12
I am interestd in physics,basically mecchanics and electrodynamics
 
  • #13
please answer,I am really in need

Nishant.

As others have told you, ask yourself what your interests are. Nobody here knows you, your interests, skills, or abilities. As far as I can see, you could choose anything to research. I could tell you to go and research the manufacture of composite bike tubes, or to research fluid flow in car exhaust manifolds, but with no reasoning whatsoever. Please don't expect anyone here to instruct you in what you should study!
