课程特征 Course Features：
This course has been designed for graduates who wish to make their careers as engineering designers and aim to advance to positions in design management in a short period of time.
We provide a balanced diet of technical deepening, technical broadening and management. In addition, you will undertake a substantial project that will allow you to develop your own particular interests within the broad area of mechanical engineering design.
You will have the opportunity to study in one of the most advanced precision engineering laboratories in the UK, with a range of ultraprecision surface measurement, coordinate measurement and machining equipment. A range of mechanical test and analysis equipment is also provided to enable fatigue, modal and thermal analysis.
课程内容 Course Content ：
Technical broadening within a module covering Finite Element Analysis and Dynamic Analysis is used to ensure that all students are equipped to effectively study the more advanced analytical elements of the course. Further technical broadening is provided within modules covering Computer Aided Design and Air Management.
Building on this, Advanced Mechanical Analysis takes you much deeper into these subject areas. You will become equipped to undertake non-linear solid and complex dynamic and analysis using state of the art computer aided modelling techniques. Non-technical broadening is included in the course with the study of Project Management and New Product Development. This will equip you to take on management roles soon after graduation, providing you with a good basis to undertake your project and a framework for your future career development.
Modules include:
- Finite Element Analysis
- Non-linear Static Analysis
- Dynamic Analysis
- Project Management
- Computational Fluid Dynamics
- Aerodynamics
- New Product Development
- Professional Development
- Research Methods
- Computer Aided Design
教学与评估 Teaching and Assessment：
The course is taught through lectures, tutorials, studio-based assignment work and lab-based research activities. Studio activity takes place in a dedicated design studio equipped with computer aided design and analysis workstations. The lab activities make use of industrial standard software and mechanical facilities. Assessment reflects the emphasis of the course on the ability to apply knowledge and skills, and is linked to examination assignment, project work and research/laboratory activities.
