Programme Leader Dr im Brown (Programme Leader, aught Postgraduate Programmes) 14. Date of production/revision of the specification June Educational aims of the programme Main educational aims of taught postgraduate programmes within the Department of Electronic Engineering he taught postgraduate Degree Programmes of the Department are intended both to assist with professional career development within the relevant industry and, for a small number of students, to serve as a precursor to academic research. Our philosophy is to integrate the acquisition of core engineering and scientific knowledge with the development of key practical skills (where relevant). o fulfil these objectives, the Programme aim to: Attract well-qualified entrants, with a background in Electronic Engineering, Physical Sciences, Mathematics, omputing & ommunications, from the U, Europe and overseas. Provide participants with advanced knowledge, practical skills and understanding applicable to the MSc degree. Develop participants' understanding of the underlying science, engineering, and technology, and enhance their ability to relate this to industrial practice. Develop participants' critical and analytical powers so that they can effectively plan and execute individual research/design/development projects. Provide a high level of flexibility in programme pattern and exit point. Provide students with an extensive choice of taught modules, in subjects for which the Department has an international and U research reputation.

2 Intended capabilities for MSc graduates A graduate from this MSc Programme should Underpinning learning know, understand and be able to apply the fundamental mathematical, scientific and engineering facts and principles that underpin space engineering. Engineering problem solving - be able to analyse problems within the field of space engineering and more broadly in electronic engineering and find solutions Engineering tools - be able to use relevant workshop and laboratory tools and equipment, and have experience of using relevant task-specific software packages to perform engineering tasks. echnical expertise - know, understand and be able to use the basic mathematical, scientific and engineering facts and principles associated with the topics within space engineering. Societal and environmental context - be aware of the societal and environmental context of his/her engineering activities. Employment context - be aware of commercial, industrial and employment-related practices and issues likely to affect his/her engineering activities Research & development investigations - be able to carry out research-and-development investigations. Design - where relevant, be able to design electronic circuits and electronic/software products and systems. echnical haracteristics of the Pathway his programme in Space Engineering aims to provide a high-level postgraduate qualification relating to the design of space missions using satellites. Study is taken to a high level, in both theory and practice, in the specialist areas of space physics, mechanics, orbits, and space-propulsion systems, as well as the system and electronic design of space vehicles. his is a multi-disciplinary programme, and projects are often closely associated with ongoing space projects carried out by Surrey Satellite echnology, plc. his is a large local company that builds satellites commercially and carries out industrially-sponsored research. Graduates from this programme are in demand in the U and European Space Industries. 16. Programme learning outcomes the programme provides opportunities for students to develop and demonstrate knowledge and understanding, skills, qualities and other attributes in the following areas: Learning Outcomes for the MSc Degrees he Department's taught postgraduate Programmes are designed to enhance the student's technical knowledge in the topics within the field that he/she has chosen to study, and to contribute to the Specific Learning Outcomes set down by the Institution of Engineering and echnology (IE) (which is the Professional Engineering body for electronic and electrical engineering) and to the General Learning Outcomes applicable to all university graduates. he first column shows the code used in the IE Handbook of Learning Outcomes. hose learning outcomes that relate specifically to further study after receiving an education at BEng (2nd lass Honours) level have an "m" in their code. he "non-m" codes are included in this list because some modules contribute to or reinforce the learning associated with these codes. his is specifically true of the "introductory/revision" FHEQ Level 6 modules included in some MSc Patterns of Study, but also applies to many FHEQ Level 7 modules.
