New Module Form Essential Information Required for Module Manager ACADEMIC YEAR ___________ Module Detail Title Integrated Civil Engineering Design (maximum 50 characters) Description In this module, the students will work in groups of three or four. Each group will be given an engineering design problem and they will be expected to prepare a design report including (i) an environmental impact statement, (ii) a preliminary design for the project and (iii) detailed design of certain elements.

This includes formal teaching, homework, self-directed study and assessment. Modules are assigned credits that are whole number multiples of 5. One credit is equivalent to 20-25 hours of work. An undergraduate year’s work of 60 credits is equivalent to 1200 to 1500 hours or 40 to 50 hours of work per week for two 15 week semesters (12 weeks of teaching, 3 weeks study and formal examinations). Module Schedule No. of Lectures Hours No. of Tutorials Hours 8 No. of Labs Hours Recommended No. of self study hours 100 Other educational activities(Describe) and hours allocated Lecture Duration Tutorial Duration Lab Duration Placement(s) hours *Total range of hours to be automatically totalled (min amount to be hit) Module Learning Outcomes (CAN BE EXPANDED) On successful completion of this module the learner should be able to: 1 Understand the different elements an integrated engineering design project and work in a team setting to successfully complete a project 2 Consider a number of different solution options and select the option that is most effective and efficient 3 Carry out an environmental impact assessment for an engineering project 4 Appreciate the roles of the different disciplines in an engineering project 5 Perform a schematic design for a project 6 Carry out detailed designs for certain elements 7 Assess the ethical, environmental, sustainability, health & safety and risk considerations for a project 8 Complete a final report and present the proposed design to a group of peers Module Learning, Coursework and Assessment Learning Outcomes at module level should be capable of being assessed. Please indicate assessment methods and the outcomes they will assess Assessment type, Outcomes assessed eg. End of year exam, group project Project all % weighting 100 Indicative Content (Marketing Description and content) Each student group will receive a design project brief. The project brief will involve aspects from different branches of Civil Engineering and will also involve some interdisciplinary considerations. The student groups will receive briefings from relevant staff and industry experts.
