The discipline is based on the application of existing technology within a field of engineering through the use of basic engineering principles and technical skills. As such, undergraduate and graduate programmes in the field focus primarily on the applied aspects of science and engineering to equip graduates with practical technical skills in product improvement, manufacturing, construction or engineering operational functions.
Studying engineering equips students with practical skills to acquire and apply scientific, mathematical, economic, social and practical knowledge to design and build structures, machines, devices, systems, materials and processes that safely serve as a solution to the needs of society. Combined with knowledge and processes related to technology, programmes in engineering and technology field provide students tools and skills to manipulate materials so to shape and change the physical world to meet needs. Through hands-on training, students are encouraged to come up with creative applications of scientific principles.
Examine the roles that science and technology play in modern sport and develop an understanding of the scientific concepts that underpin many Olympic events.
Are fossil fuels running out? Can nuclear power, carbon capture and storage or renewable energy sources provide solutions to the problem of global warming? How can we provide clean, safe, sustainable energy supplies for the UK, and the world, despite increasing population levels and affluence? In this course you will look at the basic principles underlying the design and efficient use of energy and energy supply systems.
This course provides an opportunity to sample some of the key areas in computing and information technology. You will be introduced to three topics as tasters for your future studies and career: networking, Linux and robotics. Studying these topics will enable you to develop essential skills if you are considering future employment in the computing and IT industry.
In deze master class leert u wat organisatienetwerken precies zijn en hoe zij kunnen bijdragen aan het succes van uw organisatie. We houden ons bezig met een gebalanceerde mix van wetenschappelijke theorie, praktijkvoorbeelden en onderzoeksresultaten op het gebied van waardecreatie door netwerken.
What does a sustainable energy system look like? How might renewable energy provide a much greater proportion of our energy needs in the coming decades? Which technologies and designs for the various renewable energy sources will we rely on to help us decarbonise our energy systems and maintain a secure supply of affordable electricity and heat? In this course you’ll explore these questions by systematically reviewing the eight main renewable energy technologies.
3-daagse CISM training ter voorbereiding op het officiële CISM examen van ISACA.
Within the TBU Summer School you have a great opportunity to gain more knowledge and practical experience in Landfill Waste Disposal and Composting, Use of Phosphate Salts in the Food Industry, Footwear History and Experiment in Archaeology or Footwear and Health, but also have fun in the multicultural environment.
Do you want to know more about the issues involved in working in a project team or service team environment in the computing industry? Then this is the course for you. You’ll have practical experience of applying project management techniques and service management concepts to case studies. There will also be opportunities for you to practise your team-working skills by collaborating with other students.
This course allows the student to acquire, in a time-efficient and uncomplicated manner, knowledge in the formation and construction of dynamic models. Many times, the models are performed with minimal current data and very few historical data. The simulation models that the student will design in this course accommodate these analyses, with the construction of realistic hypotheses and elaborate behavior models.
The Basic Photography Course is an ideal course to learn more about your camera, composition and how to start creating your own portfolio.
The 5-day SABSA Foundation training provides a thorough coverage of the knowlegde required for the SABSA Foundation level certificate.
