The course in Engineering Principles will focus on different methodologies that provide the students with tools for the analysis, design, and operation of complex engineering systems.
Core issues such as the systems engineering process, breakdown and aggregation of needs and requirements, stakeholder identification, definition of efficiency measures, life cycle analyses, and trade-off analyses will be assessed. Using Engineering Principles as a research methodology, a student can further carry forward their education.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer need to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
