Course programme

The taught provision has four distinct 15 credit modules that concentrate on specific generic skill. Modules: Modelling and Design: Focuses on the simulation and design of electronic devices using an advanced software package – COMSOL. This powerful commercial software package is extremely adaptable and can be used to simulate and design a very wide range of physical systems. Introduction to Nanotechnology and Microsystems: Focuses on the device fabrication techniques at the nano and micro scale, as well as introducing some of the diagnostic tools available to test the quality and characteristics of devices. Project Planning: Focuses on the skills required to scope, plan, execute and report the outcomes of a business and research project. Mini Project: Focuses on applying the skills and techniques to a mini project, whose theme will form the basis of the substantive research project. MRes Research Project: After the successful completions of the taught component of the programme, the major individual thesis will be undertaken within the world leading research groups of the School.
