This course provides an introduction to the principles of statics, dynamics and thermo-fluid mechanics relevant to engineering. A practical component will be used to complement taught theory.

Chemical Engineering Practice
This module introduces students to the essential practical and professional skills required of a chemical engineer. Students will gain experience of computer-aided drawing packages to produce engineering drawings to internationally recognised standards, and will develop ICT skills in Word and Excel to support engineering problem-solving and the preparation of technical reports, with particular emphasis on clarity, presentation, and professional standards. Ethical design, academic integrity, and employability are emphasised throughout, including engagement with the Swansea Employability Award.
In parallel, students will undertake bench-scale experimental studies to observe, record, and analyse the behaviour of engineering systems under specified conditions. Experiments are linked with theoretical concepts to determine material and thermochemical properties, evaluate system performance, and develop skills in data acquisition, error analysis, and interpretation. Students will maintain laboratory notebooks and prepare structured written reports, using both tabular and graphical formats, thereby consolidating their ability to document, analyse, and communicate experimental results effectively.
EG-1013
Environmental Engineering and Sustainability
This module introduces core environmental challenges relevant to engineering, focusing on the role of chemical engineers in addressing issues related to energy and resource use, pollution, climate change, and sustainability. Lectures are complemented by laboratory activities and group projects, with real-world case studies used to contextualise the content. Students will develop foundational skills for evaluating the environmental consequences of engineering decisions and for contributing to more sustainable solutions.
EG-1014
Process Principles & Design
This module develops the fundamental tools required for the analysis and design of chemical and biochemical processes, with a focus on material and energy flows, process efficiency, and safety considerations. Students will learn to construct complete mass and energy balances, including systems with recycle and by-pass streams, and to apply vapour¿liquid equilibrium concepts to the design of basic unit operations. Attention is given to hazards associated with flammable materials and vapour pressure., and students are encouraged to evaluate the safety implications of their chosen designs. Alongside technical content, the module emphasises the development of core engineering skills through team-based project work. Students tackle open-ended design problems, gaining experience of project management, collaborative working, professional reporting, and evaluating the safety implications of their chosen designs. Projects are student-led, with staff support and feedback provided throughout, and culminate in the production of a detailed design report as a major assessed component.
