Industry Sponsored FYP

    Real Industry Problems. Real Engineering Solutions. Real Talent Development.

    The IS-FYP programme connects NTU MAE final year students with industry partners to work on real engineering challenges over a full academic year. Companies gain fresh ideas and technical exploration — students gain deep, practical, industry-ready experience.

    Spanning two academic semesters, the IS-FYP serves as a capstone project where students apply the theoretical knowledge and practical skills developed through their coursework and prior work attachments.

    Build solutions. Develop talent. Drive innovation — together.

    🎯 Why IS-FYP Matters

    IS-FYP goes beyond academic projects. It creates structured, industry-linked engineering work that delivers practical outcomes and professional exposure.

    • Industry-defined problem statements

    • Joint supervision by faculty and industry mentors

    • Year-long deep technical engagement

    • Practical deliverables and measurable outcomes

    • Strong university–industry collaboration platform


    🔧 Project Scope Areas

    Projects may span Mechanical, Aerospace, and Robotics Engineering, including:

    • Product & system development
    • Simulation and computer modelling
    • Design, build & test projects
    • Experimental investigations
    • Applied engineering analysis

    All projects must demonstrate clear industrial relevance and engineering depth.

    Projects with a large scope may be divided into multiple parts (i.e. part I, II and etc.) with a distince and sufficient scope.

    📊 Structured & Supported

    Every IS-FYP project includes:

    • Joint supervision (Faculty + Industry)
    • Kick-off, interim, and final reviews
    • Interim Report and Presentation
    • Formal Report and Oral Presentation upon completion

    Students are graded by NTU MAE faculty under university academic standards.

      📅 Flexible Entry Routes

      Projects can be initiated through:

      • Faculty–industry collaborations
      • Direct company proposals (via IS-FYP e-form)
      • Extension from internship or professional attachment projects
      • Two project cycles run each year for flexible participation.

      📌Final Year Project (FYP) Timeline

      There are two FYP cycles each calendar year, allowing students to commence their Final Year Project in either Semester 1 or Semester 2.
