Aims

The project aims to provide a supervised but student led learning activity in a relevant area of engineering or technology. It aims to develop the academic, technical and organisational skills required to undertake a substantial individual engineering project from specification to conclusion.

Learning Outcomes

1.
Conceptualise and plan a supervised but self-led project
2.
Conduct a self-managed programme of work according to good project management practices
3.
Research and critically analyse the established body of knowledge relevant to the project
4.
Demonstrate deep technical understanding of their project
5.
Communicate technical information clearly and concisely in written and oral forms
6.
Critically evaluate all aspects of a project and formulate justified conclusions

Module Content

Outline Syllabus:Projects may involve experiment, analysis, design and/or computation and should allow a student to demonstrate achievement of the module learning outcomes.
Additional Information:The project provides the opportunity to conduct a major supervised learning activity on a relevant engineering or technical topic. The project requires the student to demonstrate good project management, critical evaluation and presentation skills, based around a detailed design and analysis of an electrical/electronic circuit or function.
