Title Empowering Engineering Solutions for Developing Communities 2
Summary This project provides students in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) or Information Engineering and Media (IEM) with the opportunity to apply their skills to real-world challenges in developing communities. Through collaboration with a non-profit organization (NGO) engaged in humanitarian efforts across Asia, students will develop innovative solutions that create a tangible impact.

The project will focus on addressing critical challenges by enhancing existing technologies—such as honey dehydrators, biogas-powered gasoline engines, methane gas generation and distribution, automated watering systems for mushroom farming, heavy metal removal from drinking water, IoT-based farming systems, portable solar lamps, and electric trishaws—or by developing new, customized solutions. Students must consider key factors such as cost-effectiveness, performance, maintainability, and long-term sustainability to ensure practical and lasting benefits.

The project scope will be flexible, allowing students to tailor their work to their interests and actual field needs. Under the guidance of the project supervisor, each student will refine their focus to maximize both technical feasibility and social impact.
