This module provides an introduction to intensive group project work in collaboration with an industrial or academic customer. Students work in groups of at least four people on a project typically based on an idea from an industrial partner, or from an academic research project looking to transfer technology to industry or build a demonstrator/proof of concept.

This group project enables you to apply your conceptual engineering and science knowledge to an engineering design problem. The ideas are developed through detailed design, experimentation, computer modelling and/or manufacture. You will also consider and manage wider aspects such as the (a) social, (b) economic, (c) political, (d) legislative, (e) environmental, (f) cultural, (g) ethical (h) and sustainability issues related to the subject matter of the project.

Working in groups you will meet regularly with your supervisor and any external sponsor, develop your team working, plan your project, present your work through meetings with your supervisor and sponsor and also prepare and submit reports and oral presentations. You will consolidate your project management skills. At all times you will monitor your progress as a team to ensure you are achieving the objectives set and ensuring quality of output.

The Group Design Project challenges you to tackle a substantial engineering problem in the same way that professional engineering teams deliver complex projects in industry. The ideas are developed through the output of individual Final Year Projects (FYPs) and include detailed design, experimentation, computer modelling and/or manufacture. Bringing together the knowledge and skills developed throughout your degree, you will work collaboratively to design, develop and evaluate an innovative engineering solution in response to a realistic design challenge.

Working within a multidisciplinary team, you will apply engineering science, analysis, modelling, experimentation and design methods to transform concepts into practical solutions. As your project develops, you will consider the wider responsibilities of professional engineers, including sustainability, ethics, environmental impact, legislation, commercial viability and the social needs of the communities your design will serve. Regular engagement with academic supervisors and, where appropriate, industrial partners will help you refine your ideas while developing professional communication and stakeholder engagement skills.

By the end of the module, you will have gained first-hand experience of delivering a major engineering project as part of a professional team, strengthening your leadership, project management and collaborative problem-solving abilities while demonstrating your readiness for graduate engineering practice.

The Group Design module embraces interdisciplinary and inclusive design practices with live projects that reflect current or future sector concerns. You will work as a team exploring issues such as societal and environmental impacts, user and market needs and novelty. You will work to advance your practical skills such as digital design, printed electronics, knit and prototyping.
