Educational Aims

Learning Outcomes

1 Design solutions to real world practical problems through the application of mathematics, basic electrical and electronic engineering concepts and practical skills.
2 Apply and develop robust computer codes and hardware integrations, designed to meet a specific task and show how concepts in hardware programming relate to the devices on which code is executed.
3 Select and evaluate the literature and online engineering resources of information to address the solutions of technical problems.
4 Acquire and analyse experimental data, including the evaluation of system performance.
5 Demonstrate and develop presentation skills as a member of a team.
6 Select and use appropriate laboratory equipment, construction, measurement and analysis of electrical and electronic systems.
7 Communicate the implementation and outcomes of engineering solutions to technical problems and societal challenges, with risk management.
8 Adopt techniques to plan and record the self-learning, function effectively as an individual, as a member or leader of a team for teamwork and project management.
9 Demonstrate and develop scientific writing skills as a individual.
10 select and apply computer software based tools for design, simulation
11 Demonstrate an awareness of the wider engineering and societal context of the module topics
12 Demonstrate a functional solution to a complex engineering problem
13 Demonstrate an understanding of an iterative design process
