Course summary
This degree enables you to understand and apply scientific and technical knowledge to the design of tomorrow's enhanced engineering systems. You will develop a high level of engineering expertise, spanning from systems thinking principles, to new technologies, preparing you for the global demands of industry. Prepare for a career as an interdisciplinary engineer, focused on the design, integration and management of new technologies and complex engineering systems. This course takes an interdisciplinary approach to complex systems and the analysis of their interactions, leading to the successful real-world application of engineered systems. Over three years, you will develop highly valued professional skills by concentrating on innovative and sustainable solutions to current and future problems in engineering systems. Individual and group engineering design projects will help to demonstrate your knowledge and skills to future employers.
- You will learn to understand and analyse the broader context around engineering systems, integrating processes and information, and managing the challenges of complex systems interactions
- Benefit from strong links to industry through guest lectures and projects designed by high profile engineers and scientists
- Study in world-leading research facilities where new engineering systems are designed, developed and implemented for industry
- Take an optional placement year to boost your employability, using our research strengths and links with industry
Modules
You will develop strong technical knowledge of broad engineering concepts, as well as a firm understanding of management studies and engineering design. The Engineer in Society is an innovative theme across each year. We introduce you to the economic, social and technical context where engineers work, and develop your social responsibility, knowledge, and topical engineering skills. Year 1 Our shared engineering first year allows you to build a foundation in mathematics, engineering, physics, electronics and computing. -The Engineering in Society - Social responsibility (15 credits) -Engineering Design 1 (15 credits) -Introduction to Mechanics of materials and manufacturing (15 credits) -Electronics - including circuits, digital and analog electronics (15 credits) -Introduction to programming (15 credits) -Engineering Science (15 credits) -Mathematics 1 (15 credits) -Introduction to Systems Engineering (15 credits) Year 2 You begin to specialise in engineering systems with modules on signals and communications, electronics (including electromagnetics), mechatronics and systems, data analysis for engineers, and sensor systems and instrumentation. -The Engineer in Society: Sustainability and Circular Economy (15 credits) -Mathematics 2 (15 credits) -Engineering Design 2 (15 credits) -Signals & Communications (15 credits) -Electronics 2 - including Electromagnetics (15 credits) -Mechatronics and Systems (15 credits) -Data Analysis for Engineers (15 credits) -Sensor Systems and Instrumentation (15 credits) Year 3 Deepen your expertise through modules in modern engineering systems, including control engineering, system engineering and integration, cybersecurity systems and the Internet of Things (IoT), networks and real-time systems. By the end of your final year, you will have established a systematic and detailed knowledge of the discipline. -Individual project (30 credits) -Systems Engineering in the society (15 credits) -Control Engineering (15 credits) -Advanced Programming (15 credits) -System Integration (15 credits) -Advanced Systems Engineering (15 credits) -Internet of Things (IoT) and Realtime Systems (15 credits)
Assessment method
Assessment is by coursework and examinations. Group learning and communication skills are addressed through design studies and presentations. Practical and technical skills are assessed through laboratory work, data analysis and project reports. Grades obtained in each year count towards the final degree classification, with increasing weight given to the later years.
