What You’ll Learn
Modules
Professionalism for Engineers
This module develops the concept of the Professional Engineer and how this impacts your career. You will study current literature on the role of the engineer in creating a sustainable future for business and society. You will understand the skills required to operate within a modern engineering environment and understand where future opportunities lie as you think about your future career.
Group Design and Integration Project (CEF Module)(CEF Code: 36Z121702)
In this module, you will learn to use management techniques related to decision making and project management processes and apply engineering design processes in hardware/software co-design and real-time systems development. During the development process, you are expected to critically analyse the design process and outcomes, as well as analyse and make appropriate use of technical literature, intellectual property and licensing.
Power Electronics
Power conversion and transmission technologies are essential and pervasive. A deep and comprehensive understanding of the scientific and engineering principles that support the field of power electronics provides a vital background for electronic engineers wishing to address the engineering challenges posed by the generation and transmission of power for industry, retail and domestic use. The module provides an opportunity for students to explore and understand the environmental and ethical issues in this field of engineering.
Embedded Systems Development 1 (CEF Module)(CEF Code: 36Z161097)
This module will introduce the students to study the role of hardware and software in developing the functional behaviour of embedded systems. The module also will provide an introduction to hardware analysis, software requirements, and design methodologies. Great emphasis is placed on the modelling of the behaviour.
Engineering Project
The project is designed to provide an opportunity for you to undertake individual, self-directed work, in an area of your choice related to this programme, and to further develop your engineering-based knowledge. You will learn to identify the main issues to be examined in the execution of an engineering-related technical project, select appropriate knowledge sources to guide project execution, evaluate data to complete a critical appraisal of the technical work, make clear and well-argued recommendations, and effectively communicate your technical understanding and recommendations.
Control Systems Design (CEF Module)(CEF Code: 36Z161100)
This module develops students' ability to design and analyse complex and modern dynamic system modelling, and use of computational packages to enhance simulation demonstrations. It involves the understanding and using of analytical techniques, interpretation of tasks between customers and designers, and computational experiments as applied to classical and modern dynamic system models.
Digital Signal Processing (CEF Module)(CEF Code: 36Z121699)
Through studying this module, you will be able to understand the engineering principles of digital systems and assess their performances. You will develop the ability to use integrated development environments to describe, simulate, implement and verify the correctness of digital design, and develop your competence in using specific Electronic Design Automation tools.
