Project

Group year 1 project in Physics

The first-year project is a group-based assessment, applying skills acquired in the core year 1 undergraduate physics laboratories to independently follow open-ended questions. Under the guidance of an academic, postdoc or PhD student, each four-student group develops their own idea into a project.

Project

Demo day - portfolio, video and presentation assessment

Industrial Design Engineering is a second-year module where students get a chance to fully develop a product that a company could theoretically manufacture. This module follows the trend in Design Engineering to integrate project-based learning (PBL), a method that focuses on learning by doing rather than solely teaching the theory or reading.

Peer marking on a group-based problem solving assessment

Group-based problem solving is a continuously assessed component of the core year 3 undergraduate physics third year Comprehensives module – a module designed to augment and consolidate students’ problem-solving abilities using material covered in the first two years of the core undergraduate degree. In group-based problem solving students work in teams of 25 to solve a complex problem.
