Research projects normally involve an extended investigation into the application of a novel component or technique, and they offer the opportunity for an in-depth study of a specialised subject. Each project is carried out under the supervision of a member of staff. The pre-requisite unit gives importance to the planning of the work programme, the setting and achievement of objectives, the costing of designs where appropriate. This unit emphasises laboratory/ computational/ design skills, the importance of monitoring progress, the presentation and critical analysis of the results of the work.
