• EG-269 Design of Machine Elements

  The module introduces the students to the design and analysis of a number of common machine elements including drives and couplings, gears, bearings and power screws. Balancing of rotating machinery is also covered.

• EGH104 Materials and Design

  This module covers the science and engineering of metallic and composite materials used in aerospace applications. It covers the materials structure, processing and properties, especially the mechanical performance. It includes practical training in materials testing and data analysis.

• EGH200 Project

  This work-based project module will take place throughout the year and within the student¿s employing company. It will involve flexible learning and will incorporate many elements of the prior learning into a substantial project where there is significant scope for individual direction. It will be directed and supported by both industrial and academic supervisors. The project will focus on specific aspects of design and / or manufacture and will allow students to develop skills and understanding across all relevant areas. It will give an opportunity for students to take responsibility for the management and recording of the project progress. Assessment will be by a combination of progress report, an oral presentation made to the academic/industrial supervisors/other employees and a final substantive project report.

• EGH300 Research Project

  This research project module will cover the entire year and be completed in the summer period within the student¿s employing company. It will involve flexible learning and will incorporate many elements of the prior learning into a substantial research project where there is significant scope for individual direction. It will be directed and supported by both industrial and academic supervisor. Assessment will be by a combination of progress report, an oral presentation made to the academic and industrial supervisors as well as other employees and a final substantive project report.

• EGH306 Robotics and Automation

  The module addresses business drivers and how these define the design of a manufacturing system. The module also includes methods for developing and optimising manufacturing processes and systems and the implementation of automation and robotics to manufacturing.

• EGH312 Power Systems

  This module aims to introduce the components within Power Networks and discuss their operation in multiphase balanced and unbalanced conditions; and, discuss the application and operation of differing Power Conversion methods in single and three phase systems.
