This course is structured to meet the requirements of both industry and the student by providing a sound theoretical and practical knowledge of the application of information technology.
The course will enable you to develop your individual skills in the use of the computer in engineering and business applications. The emphasis is on student-centred activity, and it will cover principles and practice of computer aided engineering technology and management automation and robotics programming, and IT applications to business.
Students successfully completing the course have found employment in the high technology industries, including: CAD/CAM, engineering design, software engineering, systems test, research and education.
A rapidly developing field, computer-aided engineering offers excellent employment prospects. You'll be in demand for roles such as:
* design engineer
* project manager
* computer-aided engineer
* engineering consultant.
Subjects include:
* IT Management & Applications,
* Computer Aided Engineering (1 and 2),
* Automation and Robotics,
* CAE Management,
* Research Skills,
* Visual Basic for Applications,
* Advanced Manufacturing Technology,
* and MSc Project.
We offer a comprehensive course that combines theoretical learning with practical application. As well as building on your abilities to learn independently and think critically, you'll learn to analyse engineering problems and apply your knowledge of digital applications to create solutions. You'll gain experience in assessing the different needs of various sectors of industry, and develop an advanced understanding of the use of computer-aided engineering systems. Importantly, you'll also learn to make decisions in complex, unpredictable and changing situations.
Students successfully completing the course have found employment in the high technology industries, including: CAD/CAM, engineering design, software engineering, systems test, research and education.
You are normally required to take an English Proficiency Test if you come from a non-English speaking country.
Most European Universities recognise the IELTS test.
More informationAn Honours degree in an Engineering discipline, Physical Science or Technology. An Honours degree in other numerate disciplines (eg Maths) may be considered if supported by relevant work experience.
An Ordinary degree (in required discipline) plus relevant work experience will be considered.
English Language Requirements
If English is not your first language, you´ll need to provide evidence that you can read, write, speak and understand English satisfactorily. For most courses, in additional to satisfying the standard entry requirements, we normally require international students (check) to demonstrate their English ability through an English language test, usually IELTS (International English Language Testing System), or TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language).
Courses require an IELTS score of 6.0, which is equivalent to ToEFL 550 (paper-based), 213 (computer-based) or 79-80 (internet-based).
