Software Applications for Biomedical Engineering Design module (BE21001)

The  aim  of  this  module  is  to  provide  broad  experience  of  modern engineering software as applied to both the design process and as an embedded feature in products and systems.

This module focuses on the use of major engineering software tools for use in engineering applications and across enterprises. The intention is to provide both insight into the operation of modern engineering software and comprehensive hands-on experience of the use of this engineering software as preparation for engineering in industry.

The module introduces method of presenting and visualising ideas to an engineering audience through the use of 3-D design suites (e.g. SolidWorks) for the production of basic engineering drawings and 3-D solid models.

The Embedded Controllers portion will provide an introduction to the design of microcontroller systems with hardware and software, allowing students to gain the knowledge to develop simple embedded systems for their own designs.
