This course develops students’ ability to prepare clear, structured, professional, and academically sound technical documents and reports, with particular relevance to Engineering, Computing, and Artificial Intelligence projects. It begins by distinguishing general writing from technical writing and emphasizes precision, clarity, conciseness, organization, and objectivity. Students learn the structure of a technical report, including titles, abstracts or executive summaries, introductions, background sections, methodologies, results, discussions, conclusions, and recommendations. Appropriate organization of sections and subsections and logical flow among them are emphasized. The course covers effective presentation of technical information through tables, figures, charts, and diagrams, including appropriate captions and in-text references. Students learn to adapt the level of technical detail to the intended audience and to use terminology consistently. Academic referencing and citation management are addressed together with plagiarism avoidance and the distinction among paraphrasing, quotation, and summarization. Ethical reporting practices are emphasized, including accurate presentation of evidence, avoidance of exaggerated conclusions, and transparent reporting of limitations or negative results. For AI-oriented work, students learn to document data sets, methodologies, experimental setups, evaluation metrics, results, and limitations in ways that support reproducibility. The course also includes preparation of technical presentations, project documentation, and selected professional technical communications. Upon completion, students should be able to prepare a complete and logically organized technical report, present data and experimental findings accurately, use references appropriately, document methodologies and experiments clearly, and communicate technical work in forms suitable for academic projects, graduation work, and professional practice.

This course develops students’ ability to identify ethical issues and professional responsibilities encountered in Engineering, Computing, and Information Technology and to make professionally responsible decisions based on recognized principles. It begins with the concept of professional ethics, distinctions between legal compliance and ethical responsibility, and the role of professional codes of conduct. Students examine integrity, accountability, truthful reporting, conflicts of interest, intellectual property, and responsibilities toward employers, clients, users, and society. Privacy, confidentiality, data protection, and cybersecurity are considered professional obligations rather than purely technical concerns. Particular attention is given to AI ethics, including bias, fairness, transparency, explainability, accountability, use of personal information, and potential harms associated with automated decision making. The focus is on ethical analysis and governance rather than repetition of AI algorithms. The course also considers professional responsibility when developing software or AI systems that may affect health, safety, rights, opportunities, or access to services. Testing, documentation, risk assessment, disclosure of limitations, and responsible deployment are examined in this context. Case studies are used to analyze conflicts involving performance versus privacy, profit versus safety, and innovation versus social responsibility. Students identify stakeholders, assess possible consequences, and compare alternative actions. Upon completion, students should be able to recognize ethical issues in technology projects, evaluate the impacts of technical decisions on different stakeholders, apply professional principles to decision making, and explain individual and organizational responsibilities associated with the design, development, deployment, and use of AI and digital technologies.

This course introduces concepts and methods for transforming problems and ideas into innovative and potentially viable ventures, with appropriate emphasis on technology-based products and services. It begins with entrepreneurship and innovation and distinguishes among ideas, inventions, and innovations. Students learn how unmet needs and practical problems can become opportunities for new products or services. The course covers opportunity identification, customer discovery, analysis of users, markets, and competitors, and development of a clear value proposition describing the benefit provided to a target customer or user group. Students are introduced to business models and their major components, including customer segments, channels, revenue streams, costs, key resources, activities, and partners. A tool such as the Business Model Canvas may be used to structure venture concepts. Students develop a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) or prototype, test assumptions with potential users or stakeholders, collect feedback, and iterate before committing substantial resources to full-scale development. The course also introduces pricing, marketing, funding, basic financial feasibility, intellectual property, and risk assessment. For AI-oriented ventures, students consider additional issues associated with data availability, infrastructure, responsible AI use, and the need to demonstrate that AI contributes meaningful value rather than being included solely for technological novelty. Upon completion, students should be able to analyze a problem or opportunity, formulate an innovative solution, develop an initial value proposition and business model, create a prototype or MVP, evaluate basic feasibility, and present the proposed venture effectively to stakeholders or potential supporters.

This course systematically prepares students for the subsequent Graduation Project by requiring them to identify a meaningful real-world or research problem in Artificial Intelligence or Computing and transform it into a clearly defined and feasible project. Students begin by selecting a problem domain, identifying relevant stakeholders or users, analyzing the problem, and defining project objectives and research or development questions where appropriate. Students conduct a structured literature or technology review to understand existing approaches, available tools, data, and limitations and to establish the rationale for the proposed project. Software-oriented projects define functional and non-functional requirements, while research-oriented projects identify experimental and methodological requirements. The course includes feasibility analysis and selection of suitable technologies, data sets, algorithms, platforms, and tools. Students prepare an initial system architecture or research methodology. AI projects are expected to identify data sources, data-preparation strategies, appropriate baselines, evaluation metrics, comparison procedures, privacy concerns, and relevant ethical considerations. Project planning is addressed through task decomposition, schedules, deliverables, resource requirements, risks, and mitigation strategies. Students are also expected to define a testing or evaluation plan before implementation begins. The principal output is a comprehensive project proposal including background, problem statement, objectives, related work, methodology, requirements, proposed design, evaluation plan, timeline, and references. Upon completion, students should have a technically feasible and academically defensible proposal that can be presented to an academic committee and used as the direct foundation for implementation in the Graduation Project course.
