E2013 Project

This unit intend to develops students ability to use the knowledge and skills they develop on the engineering course to complete a realistic work project. This unit aims to integrate the skills and knowledge developed in other units of the course within a major piece of work that reflects the type of performance expected of a technician or higher at work. It is designed to bring small groups of students together into a team, so that they can coordinate their individual skills and abilities. This allows them to develop the ability to work individually and with others, within a defined timescale and given constraints, to produce an acceptable and viable solution to an agreed brief. The project integrates work within the course and demonstrates the student’s ability in areas of application of engineering theory. The project may be done in groups or individually but must be individually assessed.
