More and more, engineering is turning to digital technology for innovative solutions. Automation, robotics and other computer-aided processes are revolutionising a wide variety of industries. In this course, you'll learn the theory and practice of integrating design, manufacturing and control systems in engineering through the application of computerised systems.
Skills
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.
Career Prospects
As Edinburgh's top university for Graduate Employability (HESA 2010) and one of the top in the UK for Graduate Prospects (The Independent and The Times University Guides for 2009), we can offer you a valuable head-start in your chosen career.
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.
This course is studied full-time over three trimesters. You will learn by a variety of teaching methods including lectures, tutorials, seminars, laboratory sessions and through independent study.
Note that this course may be commenced in either September or January.
