Overview
The major component of this course is an engineering design exercise under the supervision of members of staff. That design will draw on elements of theory from courses currently being studied by the student. This is accompanied by lectures from practising engineers on professional aspects of engineering. Students are encouraged to attend local meetings of professional engineering societies and institutions.
Structure
7 practice/design work undertaken in one week of concentrated study, together with some lectures throughout the half-session. Some preliminary work will be expected prior to the one week of concentrated study.
Assessment
1st Attempt: In-course assessment (100%): Project Report 80%; Oral Presentation 20%.
Re-sit: Students who No Paper to the assessment will not be given resubmission opportunity and will be required to re-register for this course or its equivalent at the next available opportunity. All other students should be referred to the course coordinator for resubmission.
Formative Assessment
Students must participate in all continuously assessed work and submit their reports and other work for marking when required. There will be opportunities for informal formative assessment and feedback in the meeting sessions within the design week. Informal feedback will be provided during the practical sessions. The return of marked coursework will provide formal feedback to the students.
