Professors from Kwangwoon University, South Korea, Guide Final Projects for UEH Students

On October 22, professors from Kwangwoon University, South Korea, held a session to guide K49 students of the UEH Institute of Smart Technology and Interaction in completing their final projects for the Machine Design course.

The Institute of Intelligent & Interactive Technologies at UEH applies the Project-Based Learning (PBL) method in various courses to help students develop practical skills through real-world projects. This approach integrates theory with hands-on application, enhancing students’ critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork abilities.

In the Machine Design course, students learn mechanical design skills using CAD software (Autodesk & Inventor). The course is divided into multiple stages:

1. First Phase (7 weeks): Students learn to use CAD software for creating 2D sketches and 3D models. This phase aims to help them grasp fundamental mechanical design principles.
2. Mid-term Project: Students complete an individual 3D design of a specific product, applying the knowledge and skills acquired.
3. Next Phase: Focuses on material mechanics and structural analysis, ensuring designs meet durability and safety standards.
4. Final Project: Students apply all their acquired knowledge and skills to complete their designs. Professors from Kwangwoon University play a key role in providing guidance and expert evaluations throughout this process.

The collaboration between Kwangwoon University and UEH is part of UEH’s strategy to internationalize education, promoting academic exchange and shared experiences between institutions. Inviting professors from Kwangwoon University not only gives UEH students access to global knowledge but also fosters academic and cultural exchange between the two universities.

The UEH Institute of Intelligent & Interactive Technologies remains committed to improving education quality by integrating cutting-edge teaching and research methods, while developing application-oriented programs that align with domestic and global job market demands.
