Programme Outcomes
Students are expected to have Knowledge and Understanding of: Which will be gained through the following Teaching and Learning methods: and assessed using the following methods:
M1. knowledge of mathematics, statistics, natural science and engineering principles at a comprhensive level and be able to apply it to the solution of complex problems. Much of the knowledge will be at the forefront of the particular subject of study and informed by a critical awareness of new developments and the wider context of engineeringThe
M2. first principles of mathematics, statistics, natural science and engineering principles and be able to use them to formulate and analyse complex problems to reach substantiated conclusions. This will involve evaluating available data and using engineering judgment to work with information that may be uncertain or incomplete, discussing the limitations of the techniques employed
M3. appropriate computational and analytical techniques and be able to select and apply them to model complex problems, discussing the limitations of the techniques employed
M12. practical laboratory and workshop skills and be able to use them to investigate complex problems
M13. appropriate materials, equipment, engineering technologies and processes and be able to apply them, recognising their limitations
M14. quality management systems and continuous improvement and discuss the role of in the context of complex problems
M15. engineering management principles, commercial context, project and change management, and relevant legal matters including intellectual property rights and be able tp apply them
Lectures; Tutorials, problem classes and group work; Web-based and conventional guided learning; Computer-based workshops; Group design work; Independent design work; Laboratories
Unseen and open book examinations; Problem solving exercises; Computer-based exercises; Written reports; Group design reports; Independent design reports; Computer-based exercises; Laboratory reports; Oral presentations; Project report; Peer assessment
Students are expected to have attained the following Skills and other Attributes: Which will be gained through the following Teaching and Learning methods: and assessed using the following methods:
M4. Select and critically evaluate technical literature and other sources of information to solve complex problems
M5. Design solutions for complex problems that evidence some originality and meet a combination of societal, user, business and customer needs as appropriate. This will involve consideration of applicable health & safety, diversity, inclusion, cultural, societal, environmental and commercial matters, codes of practice and industry standards
M6. Apply an integrated or systems approach to the solution of complex problems
M7. Evaluate the environmental and societal impact of solutions to complex problems (to include the entire life-cycle of a product or process) and minimise adverse impacts
M8. Identify and analyse ethical concerns and make reasoned ethical choices informed by professional codes of conduct
M9. Use a risk management process to identify, evaluate and mitigate risks (the effects of uncertainty) associated with a particular project or activity
M10. Adopt a holistic and proportionate approach to the mitigation of security risks
M11. Adopt an inclusive approach to engineering practice and recognise the responsibilities, benefits and importance of supporting equality, diversity and inclusion
M16. Function effectively as an individual, and as a member or leader of a team. Evaluate effectiveness of own and team performance
M17. Communicate effectively on complex engineering matters with technical and non-technical audiences, evaluating the effectiveness of the methods used
M18. Plan and record self-learning and development as the foundation for lifelong learning/CPD
