EG-D13 MSc Dissertation - Virtual Reality
The module aims to develop fundamental research skills. It comprises the development of supervised research work leading to a dissertation in the field of the Master's degree programme. The specific research topic will be chosen by the student following consultation with academic staff.
-
EG-M131 Case Study in state-of-the-art Virtual Reality
The aim of the module is to undertake an in-depth study into the state-of-the-art of XR/VR related to a student and discipline-specific subject. This will be done by carrying out in-depth research and examination of their chosen topic of specialisation using a varied range of high quality information sources. Additionally, students will explore interdisciplinary activities or opportunities in the chosen field.
-
EG-M336 Sustainable Design
This module enables students to participate in a group activity involving an integrated holistic approach to achieve a sustainable solution to a specific engineering problem. In most instances it will involve either direct interaction with industry or will be an industrially-related project. Issues other than providing a purely technical solution to the problem will have to be considered in order to achieve a satisfactory outcome to the project.
-
EGA132 Engineering Design 1
Engineering Design 1 aims to introduce students to fundamental principles of engineering design processes. Working on real world engineering problems, students will develop problem-solving skills, creative thinking, and an understanding of design considerations. Emphasis is placed on analysing and solving engineering problems while considering technical, economic, and often, societal factors. The module also focuses on effective communication of design ideas through sketching, CAD and technical drawings. Practical skills are achieved through the manufacturing of protype devices.
-
EGA214 Mechanical Engineering Design 2
Within this module students will be expected to complete a series of exercises that will the form the basis of a 'major' design. The scope of the module will involve the students to work in groups where they will consider, as a team, conceptual designs, embodiment using innovative approaches to design processes and standards etc., leading to final design documentations and manufacturing techniques.
-
EGA266 Digital Manufacturing
Within this module students will learn about digital manufacturing, from its role in concept development through to prototype production and small batch manufacture. They will be introduced to the way in which manufacturing is changing and the future possibilities presented by emerging digital manufacturing technologies. They will work individually to fabricate a digital manufacturing machine (3DPrinter), which they will calibrate and produce test parts on, as well as their own design of a 3DPrinted engineering design.
-
EGA334 Mechanical Engineering Design 3
This module demonstrates the outcomes of three years of learning and applies multiple skills to a design project. The project will show that students can manage and deliver a design task, as a team, through all stages of the design process. Students should progress from specification to concept design, undertake analysis (using computer tools as appropriate) and produce a design report and assembly drawings.
