EEEN61352 15 Semester 2 Postgraduate Taught Level 6 Bangama Senasingha Hewa Matharage Unit coordinator Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering 1 FHEQ level (Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) ' Masters/Integrated Masters P4 ' European Credit Transfer & Accumulation System Rating : 7.5 <p>The unit aims to prepare students for individual or team-based engineering research/ design/ development projects by introducing mpthods used in research and within industry in the new product/ service creation process. It aims to:</p><p>Prepare students for R&amp;D project work through practice of:</p><p>a) Independent research/ self-learning (literature review, ideation, creative problem solving).</p><p>b) Team-working to develop defining project documentation (project outline, performance requirements etc.).</p><p>c) Project planning (scope, resource, timelines, risk).</p><p>d) Writing reports.</p><p>e) Preparing and delivering presentation.</p><p>f) Undertaking peer-review of work packages.</p><p>Encourage exploration of professional responsibility in the wider context in which engineering operates (legal, environmental, health &amp; safety, managerial, ethical and social contexts).</p><p>Develop technical engineering innovations within a commercial context (intellectual property, quality, security, regulatory compliance).</p><p>Improve effectiveness of team working, project management, decision making.</p><p>Deliverables will be required to be completed both in teams and individually.</p> <p>The unit aims to prepare students for individual or team-based engineering research/ design/ development projects by introducing mpthods used in research and within industry in the new product/ service creation process.
