This module provides students with an opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills acquired over the first two years of study to a real-world engineering project. Working in teams, students will define, manage, and deliver an engineering solution through all stages of a professional design process: specification, concept creation, detailed design, manufacture, testing, and evaluation. Students will demonstrate their ability to integrate technical design, project management, risk analysis, sustainability, entrepreneurship, and professional communication within a realistic engineering context. Students will be expected to apply principles of engineering management, risk assessment, sustainability, and life-cycle thinking throughout the project to ensure their design reflects professional engineering practice.
Engineering Design 1 introduces students to fundamental principles of engineering design processes. Working on real world engineering problems, students will develop problem-solving skills, creative thinking, and an understanding of design considerations. Emphasis is placed on analysing and solving engineering problems while considering technical, economic, and often, societal factors. The module also focuses on effective communication of design ideas through sketching, CAD and technical drawings. Practical skills are achieved through the manufacturing of protype devices.
