EG-236 Design for Medical Engineering

This module has two main components: Component 1 (Engineering drawing and CAD): The first is the development of their engineering drawing skills using a CAD software package to the required British Standard. Component 2 (Design project): The second component involves the students working together in groups to address a 'real-world' medical device design brief. Students will be introduced to the medical design development process, which they will follow in order to develop their product concepts. There will be an emphasis on the importance of identifying end user needs (i.e. functional requirements), and how these inform the design process. The importance of having a robust product design specification is emphasised, along with an introduction to innovative design tools and approaches. The selected concept design will be developed virtually in CAD. Each group participant will be responsible for a component or element of the device, which will then be part of the overall product assembly which will be outlined in the group element of the report.
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 VR related to a student and discipline-specific subject. This will be done by carrying out a detailed literature survey and examination of their chosen topic of specialisation. Additionally, students will explore interdisciplinary activities or opportunities in the chosen field.
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.
