This unit is the first taught element in the EngD in Systems and introduces the student to the basics of traditional “hard” systems engineering with a product based emphasis. In addition, wider aspects are introduced to highlight that the material is a starting point rather than a complete coverage of Systems Engineering. Students will be of high graduate standard so that although the topic is new to them they will be learning at Masters level.
Aims:
To provide an introduction to basic systems with a practical bias relevant to the student‟s industrial background.
