#174321 - Budget
Responding to: Chris Harte's previous message
Chris Harte said:

Without wishing to go too deeply into the details of our final year project arrangements on a public forum, the students do not have very long to turn their projects around so I am concerned that if they go for a new device from the very start, they could spend a lot of time finding parts, developing/debugging their own PCB design and needing to learn alternative development tools etc. I don't want them to do all that and then end up not having enough time to actually write software to run on it. If the time limit becomes a factor, they will get better marks for showing something working based on the existing school boards than they will for showing a new PCB design with little or no functioning software...


Whats the budget these days for the final year project ?
Its 25 years since I did mine !
