Compulsory modules
Core Mathematics
The aim of this module is to introduce a range of mathematical methods appropriate to the needs of first-year engineering students.
Programming and Software Engineering
The aim of this module is to develop the theory and practice of software programming in an engineering context.
Applied Engineering
This module aims to:
- Introduce students to engineering as a professional multi-disciplinary activity through problems and challenges that integrate the new knowledge and understanding which is being taught in other modules.
- Provide a problem-based learning environment in which students can respond to design briefs and gain ongoing feedback from teaching and technical staff, as well as each other.
- Provide students with basic project delivery and management skills to develop an engineered solution in a team-based environment.
- Provide students with knowledge of routes to Chartered Engineer Status along with opportunities for their professional career development using the Engineering Council's UK-Specification and Personal Best.
Engineering Science
The aim of this module is for students to develop an understanding of the fundamental aspects of engineering science in the areas of statics, kinematics, dynamics, mechanics of materials, heat transfer and thermodynamics.
Energy, Technology and Society
The aims of the module are to expose students to a wide range of topics on energy engineering through lecture or seminar format. Topics will cover introductory level of energy systems, renewable energy, energy storage, and challenges of low carbon energy systems. Environmental, technical, political, socio-economic and sustainability aspects associated energy systems also will be introduced.
