Teams of students will work together to address practical, real-world problems set by industry or government partners. Each team will have an academic supervisor and an industrial advisor and will work together to produce a ‘demonstration’ of their solution to the challenge. Team size will depend on cohort size, but the expected size is around 4 students per group.

The goal of the module is to facilitate inter-disciplinary team working and cohort development, whilst providing rapid solutions to real-world challenges, to emulate the demands of a job working in the D&S sector.

Outcomes of the projects may be presented during the industry forum event, which will be held during the induction week from the second year of intake, to which industry, government and third sector stakeholders, and the wider University community will be invited (dependent on security considerations of each project).

Today's most important engineering challenges are rarely solved by individuals—they require multidisciplinary teams working closely with industry to develop innovative solutions under demanding timescales. This module places you in exactly that environment, giving you the opportunity to work on a real challenge provided by industrial or government partners.

Working in small interdisciplinary teams, you will collaborate with an academic supervisor and an industrial advisor to investigate the challenge, develop engineering solutions and produce a working demonstration of your ideas. Throughout the project, you will strengthen your ability to work effectively across disciplinary boundaries, combining technical expertise with creativity, communication and project management to deliver practical outcomes. The module reflects the pace and collaborative nature of engineering within the defence and security sector, where rapid innovation and systems integration are essential.

By the end of the module, you will have gained valuable experience of industry-focused engineering, developing the teamwork, leadership and professional communication skills needed to deliver innovative solutions to complex real-world problems. Where appropriate, your work may also be showcased to industry, government and the wider engineering community.

Teams of students will work together to address a practical, real-world sustainability problem set by industry and government partners. Each team will have an academic and an industry advisor, and work together to produce a demonstration of their solution to the challenge. Demonstrations must include elements combining sustainability and electronics and/or artificial intelligence algorithms in an integrated solution.

This module is offered in the context of a multi-disciplinary programme that requires students to both demonstrate appropriate appreciation of disciplines which are foreign to them (including an understanding of current research and research methods, an awareness of the current limits of knowledge in that discipline) and an appreciation of the possibilities of multi- and inter-disciplinary research opportunities.

The purpose of the module is to develop students’ ability to undertake research in human geography by building on what they have learnt related to methods and research design in Geog2008 and practice-based learning on a fieldtrip and associated lectures, practicals and tutorial teaching.

The module will give them practical experience of carrying out research to ensure they have practical research experiences that ready them for GGES3012 - the Undergraduate dissertation. Through the practical experience of undertaking group research project as part of a fieldcourse, a range of research skills including design, methodology and data analysis will be learnt.

The purpose of the module is to develop students’ ability to undertake research in human geography by building on what they have learnt related to methods and research design in GGES2006 and practice-based learning on a fieldtrip and associated lectures, practicals and tutorial teaching.

The module will give them practical experience of carrying out research to ensure they have practical research experiences that ready them for GGES3004 - the Undergraduate dissertation (complementing GGES2017). Through the practical experience of undertaking group research project as part of a fieldcourse, a range of practical research skills including design, methodology and evaluation will be learnt.
