<p>Knowledge and understanding:</p><p>ILO1: Know the principles of advanced process evaluation</p><p>ILO2: Understand the sensitivity of designs to operational parameters </p><p>ILO3: Understand how to synthesise a complex unit operation or subsystem, taking into account uncertainties</p><p>Intellectual skills:</p><p>ILO4: Perform market analysis for selection of plant capacity and location </p><p>ILO5: Synthesise a flowsheet for the manufacture of a defined quantity of specified product(s) via a chosen overall route </p><p>ILO6: Evaluate the consequences of uncertainty of data, equipment performance and applicability of rigorous calculation procedures </p><p>ILO7: Evaluate alternatives on an economic basis and sensitivity analysis</p><p>ILO8: Evaluate comprehensively process safety </p><p>ILO9: Evaluate comprehensively process sustainability </p><p>Practical skills:</p><p>ILO10: Report results against a deadline </p><p>ILO11: Produce realistic drawings and sketches of process and equipment</p><p>Transferable skills and personal qualities:</p><p>ILO12: Work and communicate effectively within a group and as a group</p><p>ILO13: Present the results to an assessment panel orally </p><p>ILO14: Defend the chosen design in oral examination</p><p>ILO15: Reflect on the design experience and gained knowledge & skills</p><p> </p>
<div><div><div><p>The Design Project is a major piece of group work, carried out under minimal supervision, which enables students to demonstrate the skills and knowledge gained elsewhere in the degree programme. As such, the main learning process is activity based and associated with the undertaking of an open-ended, minimally defined project. </p></div></div><p> </p></div><p> </p>

<p>Continuous Assessment</p>
<p>E-resources such as discussion forums and both individual and group submissions through Turnitin, will be used. There will also be an element of peer assessment, which will be carried out online and considered as part of the teamwork assessment.</p>
