| Description:
| Aims:
To consolidate and complement the theoretical content of engineering knowledge acquired in Year 1 and Year 2 with experience of industrial practice . To encourage self-development. To promote self-confidence.
Learning Outcomes:
After taking this unit the student should be able to:
* demonstrate an enhanced understanding of engineering practice, an ability to work in an industrial environment and an awareness of training objectives.
Skills:
Ability to apply skills learnt at university to engineering industry, and the development of new skills particular to the individual placement.
Content:
Practical experience and first hand observation of engineering and/or business practice. The student is supported in finding an employer, but the Department cannot guarantee that every student will be employed. All students will be given an academic supervisor for the duration of the unit. Students who obtain employment in the UK will be visited at their place of work to discuss with them and their Supervising Engineer their training progress and objectives. Where this is not feasible (for example overseas placements), communication will be maintained by other means.
