Coordinator should assign the relevant student to any appropriate lecturer.

soon as possible.

selecting the appropriate supervisor for their Final Year Project to the Coordinator within a specified time. (Refer to Bachelor Dissertation/Project Registration Form (PU / PS / BR06 /AJR))
• Final Year Project Coordinator collects project proposal headings and analyzes so that there is no overlap between students (if necessary).
Proposal Writing
• Once students are divided into supervisors, students will need to discuss with their
supervisor on the selected project.
• Students should meet with their supervisor at least 6 times in a semester.
• Upon approval, students are required to prepare a proposal based on the scope of the
project agreed upon.

• The supervisor will need to assess the meetings and progress of their students in the supervisor form.
• Students are advised to benefit from the supervisor’s guidance by scheduling regular meetings. The student will record the main points of each meeting, summarize them and submit them to the supervisor immediately following the meeting. This strategy will help both sides to track the progress and identify any difficulties.
