Engineering & Construction and the Built Environment
Engineering & Construction and the Built Environment cluster includes Courses in Mechanical Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Electronic Engineering and Construction Engineering. Our courses are geared for engineers who want to apply fundamental engineering knowledge to the challenges of the real world by looking at practical aspects of design such as cost, emissions, performance, energy use etc.
Our courses also complement the engineering knowledge with transferable skills that are valued in industry such as problem solving and critical thinking. Students explore the professional behaviours a responsible engineer needs including ethics, environmental and sustainability awareness, compassion, and inclusivity. Our latest addition in portfolio is MSc in Renewable and Sustainable Energy.
Project work is a big part of student experience and is a great opportunity for them to use our excellent facilities which include supersonic wind tunnel. 3D printers etc to apply their knowledge, initiative, and creativity to solve complex engineering problems. One major aspect is our poster day where students get the opportunity to demonstrate their artefacts to a select audience from industry and get some prizes. This focus on hands-on learning is further enhanced by various student led activities including Formula student project.
Engineering & Construction and the Built Environment cluster is also following the 天美传媒鈥檚 vision of career powered education by incorporating industry led projects in the curriculum and other industry led initiatives.
