The educational aims of the course are to provide:

1. A systematic understanding of key aspects of electrical, mechanical and embedded systems engineering, including acquisition of coherent and detailed knowledge at, or informed by, the forefront of the discipline
2. An ability to deploy accurately established techniques of engineering analysis and enquiry
3. The ability to self-manage learning and to devise and sustain arguments and solve problems, and to incorporate current research into sophisticated systems and control, or advanced scholarship within the discipline
4. An appreciation of the uncertainty, ambiguity and limits of engineering knowledge with regard to electrical and mechanical engineering, embedded systems and control technology
5. The ability to apply knowledge, methods and techniques to initiate and carry out electro-mechanical engineering projects
6. The ability to critically evaluate arguments, assumptions and data to make judgements and achieve a solution to a problem in a global context
7. The ability to communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions to specialist and non-specialist audiences
8. The transferable skills necessary for employment requiring the exercise of personal responsibility, complex decision-making and self-development of knowledge

On successful completion of the course, a student will be able to:

1. Use knowledge and understanding of electrical, mechanical and embedded systems engineering to apply technical and practical skills to solve problems in developed technologies using analytical techniques
2. Contribute to the design, development and realisation of products, systems or processes to deliver engineering projects or services using established techniques and methods
3. Accept and exercise personal responsibility for project planning and management
4. Use effective communication and interpersonal skills in communicating technical matters
5. Demonstrate a commitment to professional engineering values, recognising obligations to society, professional ethics and the environment
6. Demonstrate the ability to work effectively and constructively as part of a multi-disciplinary team, to learn from reflecting on own performance and managing own personal development
7. Analyse and evaluate a range of technical data (primary and secondary) and engineering information to make effective, evidence-based decisions and solve problems based thereon; this includes the need for strong digital literacy and simulation analysis.
