Modules :
Research Project – This module enables students to independently deliver a complex engineering research project while applying critical thinking, communicating effectively, and developing key analytical, creative, and collaborative skills.
Professional Engineering – This module teaches students the key professional standards and skills required of engineers—covering strategy, sustainability, management, and professional practice—so they can produce effective service delivery plans and demonstrate responsibility to society, the profession, and the environment.
Further Mathematics – This module trains students to use key mathematical methods—such as number theory, matrices, numerical techniques, and differential equations—to analyse and solve engineering problems.
Manufacturing – This module introduces students to lean manufacturing practices and advanced manufacturing technologies, enabling them to apply lean methods, understand their challenges, and evaluate how emerging digital and technological innovations can enhance organisational competitiveness.
Sustainability – On successful completion of this module the student with possess a wide range of knowledge and understanding of the issues and topics associated with sustainability and low carbon engineering.
Computational Engineering – This module introduces the use of FEA and CFD in product development, requiring students to build and evaluate numerical models while developing a clear conceptual understanding of their principles and essential mathematical foundations.
Advanced Materials – This module deepens students’ understanding of how material structures relate to their properties and requires them to select and evaluate appropriate materials for engineering applications based on this knowledge.
Further Mechanical Principles – This module provides students with advanced mechanical theory, covering elastic constants, beam bending and deflection, stresses in thin? and thick?walled vessels, belt drive theory, rotating system constraints, and the operation of friction clutches and brakes.
