Smart Product Engineering is aimed at those with an interest in the design and development of digital devices and services that they encounter every day.

A novel teaching and learning approach focussed on developing product solutions from the outset is employed whereas existing programmes tend to start with component analysis and building up to system development. This approach has a strong practical focus, producing graduates with the ability to conceive, design, implement, operate and evaluate smart product prototypes. The students will operate with a system engineering perspective while using rapid prototyping to get a real-world understanding of design, production and user-driven constraints in new product development.
