This Design Project consolidates the learning of Design Project 6A but provides the learner with the opportunity to demonstrate the synthesis of a greater resource of knowledge, since the learner would have acquired a greater knowledge base at this stage of the learning programme. The processes of needs analysis, project scope definition, project research and project reporting are applied to the design of a device. These projects are designed to encourage syndicate group work. The projects also develop the learners' abilities to supplement existing theoretical and technical knowledge with related research and to apply this to the solving of engineering problems.
