Course Objective

To guide at young engineer candidate about the internal combustion engines that a part of daily life in vehicles to examine as engineer with the synthesis of knowledge which learn from now on and to analyze the reason of potential problems about them.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To gain the ability of questioning problems in internal combustion engine as engineer.
2   Students will be able to find a chance to test about internal combustion engines with knowledge that gain their entire education life and to finish the argue about necessity of information from other lessons.
3   To get the habit of using standard, unit and dimension control in community for necessary in mechanical engineering applications and to use existing technique, capabilities and modern tools.
4   To gain habit of comprehensive thinking about environment, technology, economy and ethic.
5   At the end of the module, students will be expected to gain ability of researching, preparing presentation, making presentation in front of the society and reaching to an information.

Further Notes About Assessment Methods

A sufficient number of students participating in the course get marks in exams and presentation by multiplying the percentage of specified in the table. (%50 of presentation marks are determined by course instructor and the other %50 part are determined by students that participate the presentation and the average of marks are calculated.)

Assessment Criteria

A pool, contains questions from exam of previous years or potential questions are given to students so that at least %50 of these questions are asked in the exam and the other %50 of questions are asked from recent year's presentation. The answers should based on a reason and students should be careful about units and dimensions in their exam papers.
