  Other supervisor: Dr Jesus Ojeda Ledo

• EG-304 Safety and Loss Prevention

  This module aims to provide a basic knowledge of the technical issues underlying safety and loss prevention on process plant, introducing risk and hazard assessment together with the legal framework of obligations for organizations and individuals.

• EGC401 Industrial Engineering and Research Practice

  This module aims to give students practical experience in either the industrial setting or the research environment. Either two day placements in industry or two day research placements within the College of Engineering are conducted. The industrial placements are determined by interview with the companies involved or College staff. A range of research projects will be offered by the College staff. The module aims to reinforce and deepen material taught previously in the undergraduate environment and broaden practical skills learnt during the previous years. The module will provide an opportunity to apply to industrial/research problems the knowledge obtained within the undergraduate course. The module will also give experience in teamwork, communication, presentation and planning skills plus where appropriate the experience of the management structures and practices of industrial organisations or research projects.
