It is intended to give an insight into modern design tools and provide an opportunity for students to develop operational skills using industry-standard software.

What will I study?

Investigate ECAD systems
• identify the essential features of an ECAD system of commercial standard
• identify the range of software available to assist the design of electronic circuits and systems
• prepare a critical review of modern ECAD software packages.


Evaluate software packages
• interpret manufacturers ’user instructions to set up correct working environments
• perform exercises to assess the performance of ECAD software packages
• evaluate and report the results of exercises.

Apply ECAD to design problems
• demonstrate operating skills to provide solutions to engineering design problems
• apply project management techniques and evaluate the results of completed projects
• devise and test simple exercises and evaluate their results against predictions, where appropriate


Assessment Outcomes:
At the end of these modules the student should be able to demonstrate a practical capacity to carry out the tasks listed to a commercially acceptable standard, applying principles correctly in context but may not yet have developed a deep understanding of the theoretical underpinning of the subject. Optional assessments are included.


How will the course be delivered?

The course runs for a maximum of 1 week – 9am until 7pm.
