Abstract

Final year project (FYP) is a paramount education procedure to guarantee the quality of higher engineering education (HEE). In view of the quality decline of the engineering undergraduate FYPs in the context of mass HEE, the reasons causing the quality decline of FYP in HEE including the undergraduate per se, the supervisor and the educational evaluation mechanism etc., are systematically analyzed. Drawing on some advanced practices in the development trend of HEE at home and abroad, the measures to improve the quality of FYP for the current HEE are suggested with a view of being conducive to solving the present problems of the quality decline of undergraduate FYPs in HEE.
