"MICROELECTRONICS IN CONSUMER PRODUCTS 4 ENG4098\nAcademic Session: 2023-24\nSchool: School of Engineering\nCredits: 10\nLevel: Level 4 (SCQF level 10)\nTypically Offered: Semester 1\nAvailable to Visiting Students: Yes\nShort Description\nThis course demonstrates how the design of consumer products is being rapidly changed by the introduction of inexpensive programmable microelectronics technology.\n\nTimetable\nTwo lectures per week.\n\nTwo laboratory sessions during the course.\n\nExcluded Courses\nNone\n\nCo-requisites\nNone\n\nAssessment\n 90% Written Exam\n\n10% Report\n\nMain Assessment In: December\n\nAre reassessment opportunities available for all summative assessments? Not applicable\n\nReassessments are normally available for all courses, except those which contribute to the Honours classification. For non Honours courses, students are offered reassessment in all or any of the components of assessment if the satisfactory (threshold) grade for the overall course is not achieved at the first attempt. This is normally grade D3 for undergraduate students and grade C3 for postgraduate students. Exceptionally it may not be possible to offer reassessment of some coursework items, in which case the mark achieved at the first attempt will be counted towards the final course grade. Any such exceptions for this course are described below. \n\nCourse Aims\nThe aims of this course is are to:\n\n■ illustrate how the design of consumer products is being rapidly changed by the introduction of inexpensive programmable microelectronics technology;\n\n■ to engender a basic knowledge of microprocessor operation.\n\nIntended Learning Outcomes of Course\nBy the end of this course the students will be able to:\n\n■ design and analyse the operational principles behind simple microprocessor systems;\n\n■ discuss the opportunities afforded by including microprocessors in consumer products.\n\nMinimum Requirement for Award of Credits\nStudents must attend the degree examination and submit at least 75% by weight of the other components of the course's summative assessment.\n\n\nMore information at: https://www.gla.ac.uk/postgraduate/taught/sensorandimagingsystems/?card=course&code=ENG4098" . .

"The MSc programme in Sensor & Imaging Systems lasts one year and contains a minimum of 180 credits. Students undertake a minimum of:\n\n60 credits at the University of Glasgow (semester 1), and\n60 credits at the University of Edinburgh (semester 2)\nThe remaining 60 credits will take the form of an extended MSc project, carried out on a specific aspect of theoretical, computational or experimental aspect of Sensor and Imaging Systems. Projects will be conducted at Glasgow and/or Edinburgh Universities while embedded within a research group or groups – under the direct supervision of a member of academic staff.\n\nStructure\nThe curriculum undertaken by each student will be flexible, and tailored to the prior experience and expertise of the student, his/her particular research interests and the specific nature of the extended research project topic provisionally identified at the beginning of the MSc programme.\n\nGenerally, however, courses taken in semester 1 will focus on skills, understanding and knowledge in the fundamentals of SIS, while courses taken in semester 2 will provide training in more specialist aspects."@en . . . .

"You will gain an understanding of sensor-based systems applicable to a whole host of markets supported by CENSIS.\n\nCareer opportunities are extensive. Sensor systems are spearheading the next wave of connectivity and intelligence for internet connected devices, underpinning all of the new ‘smart markets’, e.g., grid, cities, transport and mobility, digital healthcare and big data.\n\nYou will graduate with domain-appropriate skills suitable for a range of careers in areas including renewable energy, subsea and marine technologies, defence, automotive engineering, intelligent transport, healthcare, aerospace, manufacturing and process control, consumer electronics, and environmental monitoring.\n\nGlobally, the market for sensor systems is valued at £500Bn with an annual growth rate of 10%. The Scottish sensor systems market is worth £2.6Bn pa. There are over 170 sensor systems companies based in Scotland (SMEs and large companies), employing 16,000 people in high-value jobs including product R&D, design, engineering, manufacturing and field services."@en .
