工程产品设计工程

产品设计工程师将基本思想转变为功能全面的产品。本课程旨在帮助您开发开发产品所需的创造性工程技能，这些产品不仅可以达到预期的目的，而且看起来不错，而且物有所值。您将与人体工程学，美学和图形通信方面的技能以及工程材料和制造方面的技能一起发展。我们的课程在第1年和第2年具有共同的内容，这意味着您可以在课程之间进行转换，直到第2年末。您将学习各种工程学科，材料，数学，设计原理以及生产和管理的基础知识。您将专注于专业设计主题，例如工业设计，机电一体化和计算机辅助设计（CAD）。您还可以通过广泛的可选类来发展自己的兴
Why this courseProduct design engineering is an exciting industry that continually evolves alongside technology, product advancements, the demand for quicker turnaround times, unique and personalised products, and environmentally friendly supply chains and production.It's about understanding product requirements and functionality, questioning existing ways of doing things and seeing opportunities to change things for the better.Product design engineering blends a more technical engineering focus (such as mechanics, electronics, maths, engineering calculations of a products' design) with design principles, user experience, and technology to create new functional products or develop existing ones that can then be sold in competitive markets.This is integrated with manufacturing processes, CAD, rapid prototyping and digital prototyping technologies, software and practical skills to turn the design into reality which is fundamental to global market success and requires not only customer appeal, aesthetics and brand awareness but also consistent and correct functionality, superior quality and fitness for purposes all at a competitive price.Study with usdevelop the skills to create fully-functioning new products which are visually appealing and efficiently manufacturedlearn to combine virtual and physical design and prototyping in our digital design suiteundertake work placements in industryoption to study abroad in Europe, Australia and Singaporeopportunity to undertake an industrial group project with a design engineering organisationaccreditation has been awarded for this programme from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) and Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) as meeting, in full, the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered EngineerCareersAs a design engineer, you can be involved in almost every aspect of the product journey, from the initial concept, design, development, testing and management of projects to the manufacturing. Product design engineers use technical knowledge, mathematical problem-solving skills and a passion for designing and refining the usability of luxury to everyday items, across a diverse range of industries.Roles may have responsibilities such as:Concept, specification, tender and development of new projects or componentsCAD, CAM systems to design and visualise projects to clients or internally within teamsModel making, prototyping and product testingAnalysis of how to improve existing products, including complex calculationsLeadership including effective communication with clients, colleagues, contractors and managing other team membersProject management including ensuring projects are delivered to a timescale, to standard and within a budgetWork experience is highly desirable for graduates applying within the product design industry, to best demonstrate their team working abilities, skills and portfolio breadth. Our students truly benefit from the industrial group project which is integrated into their degree, to provide them with this necessary experience to stand out when competing for graduate jobs. Furthermore, many of our students gain placements and internships throughout their studies to advance their professional development ahead of graduation.Companies return year-on-year to recruit from our department, and specifically, companies such as Chivas Regal, Adidas, Rolls Royce, Dyson and Jaguar Land Rover have our graduates covering a plethora of roles across their teams. Some of our graduates go on to graduate trainee programmes with companies such as Diageo, Accenture, Unilever and Procter & Gamble.
