This module is an introduction to the essential elements of marketing and consideration of its applicability to business organisations and functions within an engineering innovation context.

Mathematical techniques required in the degree programmes taught in collaboration with the Singapore Institute of Technology. The main topics include calculus of several variables, differential equations, Fourier series and Laplace transforms.

This project based course introduces the student to a range of modern methods and techniques supporting industrial product design activity with particular emphasis on innovative conceptual design generation, human factors, environmental design and product architecture. 3D solid modelling CAD skills are developed throughout the project activity.

This project based course introduces the student to a range of modern methods and techniques supporting industrial product design activity. 3D solid modelling CAD skills are developed throughout the project activity. Singapore students undertake this course during a four week study period at the University of Glasgow.

Dynamics: gives the student a thorough grounding in the modelling of mechanical systems, the solution of the resulting differential equations and the application to simple vibration problems. Control: understand and analyse simple feedback control systems.

To develop the students understanding of Availability, Reliability, Maintainability thereby enhancing the students’ ability to evaluate design proposals from a number of related viewpoints. To illustrate and develop an understanding of robust design from functional performance and manufacture viewpoints. To expose students to the discipline involved in researching a technical area and produce a report and presentation.

Basic understanding of the various mechanisms of heat transfer. The course will also provide the student with an understanding of heat exchangers and how such items of equipment are designed.

Detailed properties of metals and plastic and their selection methods for products, the joining of metallic and non-metallic materials including welding and adhesive bonding, and forming processes for metals, polymers and composites.

This project based course introduces the student to a range of modern methods and techniques supporting industrial product design activity. 3D solid modelling CAD skills are developed throughout the project activity.

To equip students to perform deformation analyses of linear elastic skeletal structures by mathematical modelling and appropriate manual and computational methods, in particular, finite element analysis (FEA).

Theory, design and implementation of instrumentation and measurement systems as employed in an engineering context. Particular focus is given to signal acquisition and processing techniques.

Understand the nature and problems of software and the need for software engineering. Develop familiarity with selected software engineering processes and techniques. Explore the relationship between software engineering and more traditional engineering disciplines

Developments in metals and polymers; Design and manufacturing of polymeric composites; Stress analysis of composites; Advances in adhesive bonding and surface engineering; Sandwich constructions; Ceramics- properties, processes and reliability.

To illustrate how the design of consumer products is being rapidly changed by the introduction of inexpensive programmable microelectronics technology. In addition, to engender a basic understanding of microprocessor operation.

The individual project is an extended piece of work that provides the opportunity to show enthusiasm and initiative in attaining a specified goal. It is designed to develop the student’s ability to understand the field of the investigation, to select and justify the methodology adopted, to apply the methodology, to represent their results or findings accurately, and to understand and present the significance of the results or findings. In the case of the MDE project, this will be mechanical design and manufacture driven, following a generic design process. In the case of MT, it includes software, simulations, and often some form of mechanical or process application.

Introduces the concepts of entrepreneurial planning through understanding and practice in the use of developing a business plan. 

Applies classical control theory to a range of different types of system. It includes the classic types of controller such as proportional–integral–differential (PID), simple compensators and the use of Nyquist and Bode plots. The state space representation is introduced and used to assess stability.

Brief revision of beam theory: shear force, bending moment and influence line diagrams, the governing differential equation (moment-curvature equation) for a beam in uniform bending. Introduction to variational methods, the principle of virtual displacements (PVD).

To provide an introduction to robots. Introduce the types of sensors and actuators that are commonly used in robotics. Develop an appreciation of the application issues concerning sensors and actuators within the context of robot applications. Develop the mathematics required to locate the position of a robot head and use this to plan and control its trajectory.
