An engaging talk from our academic team which takes an overall look at Engineering as a professional occupation. Your students will take part in this conversation and debate to understand some of the challenges and opportunities that exist. The fine balance of achieving technological developments and advancing quality of life while at the same time maintaining a healthy lifestyle for humans and the planet on which we live will also be explored.
Introduction to Electronics
Your students can get hands on in our laboratories and workshop to build a basic circuit. They’ll learn the role of the individual components, but also the skills needed to bring them to life to perform a function. This knowledge and these skills will become the building blocks for devices around the home, industrial applications, transportation and communication devices.
