EG-138 Introduction to Mechatronics

This is a practical module introducing students to fundamental engineering skills including work in the laboratory, basic programming and groupwork in a design challenge. Engineering is more than understanding technical design, it is often the social, environmental and economic context underpinning engineering solutions that determine success or failure. The design challenge/ hackathon will allow you to engage with a real world engineering problem
EG-163 Design and Laboratory Classes 1

Competence in engineering drawing using an industry standard CAD system and essential laboratory skills
EG-3080 Engineering Management (Aero, EEE, Mech)

The goal of this course is to provide the skills for professional engineers to meet the challenges of their future careers, whether they be in academia, industry, or as an entrepreneur. Irrespective of future careers engineers will be involved in projects, management and business organisations and an awareness of these issues is important for all team members. It should be recognized that the topics included in the course are not limited to scientists and engineers, they are useful for people in any careers. This course will help develop the skills that will allow you to be a more effective project team member and also when you start to take on the role of project manager. Students will gain understanding of project and resource management, financial and environmental assessments, legal liability and responsibilities within business. This module will also provide support on careers development.
EGA229 Experimental Studies - Aerospace

The course introduces the students to experimental studies in a wide range of subjects relevant to Aerospace Engineering. Each experiment is self contained and the student will present the findings in written form through a lab report (or combination of lab reports and class tests) which will have a set of experiment specific questions to answer. This written reports and class tests also forms the basis for the assessment. All students work in groups and carry out five in-situ experiments and one external experiment, however the assignments are all individually submitted. The students keep a log-book of the experimental observations and results, which is used for reference for the technical report from each experiment written-up within the fortnight after the experiment.
EGA302A Aerospace Engineering Design 3

The module is a group design project for year 3 aerospace engineering students. Students are required to design an aerospace vehicle from an initial set of mission requirements and constraints through concept design to detailed design and flight testing. It requires students to draw on knowledge from a range of modules across the aerospace engineering course. Each student will specialise in one of six areas: aerodynamics, structures, materials & propulsion, weight & performance, control systems or dynamics & stability. Groups will be required to submit a series of group design reports at each stage in the design process as well as deliver presentations to their peers and supervisors. Each student will also take a turn acting as chief engineer and a reflective essay is required after the student's time as the chief engineer to include ethics, operational and EDI aspects. Group planning statement will include a pass/fail element for team ethics and EDI considerations. By the end of the module students should have an understanding of the process and complexities involved in designing an aerospace vehicle from scratch and appreciate the multi-disciplinary nature of this task. Note that since this module is, in part, explicitly assessing students' ability to work effectively within a team environment the group submissions and peer review components of assessment cannot be excluded for extenuating circumstances.
