Overview

This is a practical, PBL mode subject in which students work in teams to formulate responses of given problems specifically designed to integrate with the learning and content from units Linear Systems with Matlab Applications and Analogue Electronics. Teams of students will have an Electrical Engineering staff member as a ‘coach/mentor or supervisor’ whilst working on these problems. Particular emphasis will be placed on development of communication and generic skills.

Learning Outcomes

On successful completion of this unit, students will be able to:

  1. Apply knowledge of basic science and engineering fundamentals in order to identify complex problems and formulate solutions;
  2. Articulate effectively, not only with engineers but also with the community at large;
  3. Apply In-depth technical competence in at least one engineering discipline;
  4. Adapt a systems approach to design and operational performance and integrate the principles of sustainable design and development;
  5. Collaborate effectively as an individual and in multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural teams, with the capacity to be a leader or manager as well as an effective team member;
  6. Exhibit commitment to the social, cultural, global, environmental and ethical responsibilities of the professional engineer, and the need for sustainable development; and
  7. Demonstrate the capacity to undertake lifelong learning by locating, evaluating, managing and using information effectively.
