Final Year Projects Showcase

On Wednesday 16 October 2019 the annual UC Engineering Showcase of Final Year Project Posters was held in the Engineering Core. The posters on display highlighted the high quality of projects completed during the year and the depth and breadth of innovation being carried out by our Final Year Students. Industry support for Final Year Projects was also apparent.
