Aims |
|
|
To provide students with the experience of solving a design problem within the scope of a typical avionic system. The module aims to provide the opportunity for students to apply their knowledge and creative skills to design and evaluate a practical design solution to meet a given requirement and to further develop their team-working and presentation skills. |

Learning Outcomes |
|
|
(LO1) On successful completion of the module, students should be able to demonstrate a detailed knowledge and understanding of the technical aspects of avionic system design, particularly of their design project. an appreciation of the relationship between the results of computer based analysis and practical measurements. |
|
|
(LO2) On successful completion of the module, students should have developedthe ability to apply technical knowledge and understanding to create a practical engineering design solutionthe ability to use some example computer based design tools and critically assess their value and limitations.the ability to interpret simulation results in order to compare performance against a given requirement. |
|
|
(S1) On successful completion of the module, students will have enhanced their experience of the following practical skills:i) the use of simulation tools to assist creative engineering designii) analysis, interpretation and presentation skills |
|
|
(S2) On successful completion of the module, students should have enhanced their experience of the following transferable skills:i) creativityii) to research a technical topic and gather relevant informationiii) written and oral communicationiv) data evaluationv) team-working, time management and planning |
