Theinternship activities are based on a prearranged LearningAgreementbetweentheIndustrySupervisorandAcademicSupervisor in the Department in which the student isregistered; and focuses on the application of Engineeringprinciples learnedintheclassroom,teamparticipationandproblem solving. Students must be in good academicstanding (cumulative and degree GPA of at least 3.00) topursuethiscourse.Thecourseisevaluatedviatheappraisalofthestudents’worklogs,writtenreportandtheIndustrialSupervisor’sappraisal.LEVEL:3SEMESTER:COURSECODE:ENGR3003COURSETITLE:ENGINEERINGENTREPRENEURSHIPNUMBEROFCREDITS:3CREDITSPREREQUISITES:CompletionofallLevelIICoursesCOURSE DESCRIPTION: This 13-week course apprisesstudents who wish to participate in entrepreneurialactivities, of a range of issues related to engineeringentrepreneurship within national and regional marketspaces.Itoffersstudentsexperienceincreatingafeasibilitystudyandbusinessplan/model.Amixofacademicstaffandengineering entrepreneurs will facilitate the course usinglecturesandcasestudies.Studentswillworkinsmallgroupstoidentifyanengineeringproduct,processorservicetobeintroduced/improved to meet local/regional demand.Course resources will be drawn from both theentrepreneurship literatureand locallyproducedresourcesforentrepreneurs.SEMESTER:1COURSECODE:FOST3000COURSETITLE:PRINCIPLESOFFOODSCIENCENO.OFCREDITS:3PREREQUISITES:SYLLABUS:Thebasicchemistryofcarbohydrates,proteins,lipids,vitamins,salt,preservativesandantioxidants,enzymes,additivesandwaterinrelationtofoodpreservationandprocessing.
