Engineering NARS 1.What is Engineering?

2. The attributes of an engineer the skilled application of a distinctive body of knowledge and Understanding based on: mathematics, science and technology, integrated with: business and management, which is acquired through education and professional formation in a particular engineering discipline.

The engineer must be able to exercise original thought, have good professional judgment and be able to take responsibility for the direction of important tasks. It is necessary therefore that undergraduate programs for engineering students foster and inculcate the following knowledge and understanding, abilities, and qualities of mind.

The attributes of an engineer         

an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering concepts to the solution of complex engineering problems an ability to design and conduct experiments and to analyze and interpret data an ability to design a system, component or process to meet required needs an ability to function within multi-disciplinary teams an ability to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems an understanding of professional and ethical responsibilities an ability to communicate effectively an ability to consider and avoid the detrimental impact of engineering solutions within social or global measures an ability to use the techniques, skills and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice

Student Attainment Level Attainment level

attributes

A



B

Understanding of the subject and techniques is good, but may be more confined to the program. •There is an understanding of what knowledge and techniques can be applied to new situations. The methodology for solving problems can be clearly demonstrated. New knowledge is readily acquired;

C

Understanding of the subject and techniques is basic and selective. •There is recognition of what generic knowledge should apply to a new situation, but there may be less confidence in how to use it. The methodology for solving problems can be explained even if it cannot be applied. New knowledge is acquired with perseverance;

Understanding of the subject and techniques is extensive extending beyond the information provided in the program. •Knowledge and techniques are applied quickly and readily to new situations, including any unseen or open-ended problems. • Both the problem and the solution can be critically appraised. New knowledge is acquired quickly and accurately;





Attainment Attributes level A

Project or practical work is planned, executed and written up with little assistance. There is clear evidence of original thinking in the analysis and discussion of results, with excellent understanding of literature and of relevant practice. There is a clear plan of future work;

B

Project or practical work is planned, executed and written up with guidance. Results are analyzed and discussed in a competent manner. There is good understanding of literature and relevant practice with suggestions for future work;

C







Project or practical work is planned and executed with reasonable success but writing-up may require help. The full significance of the results may not be immediately identified and some assistance may be required in their interpretation and discussion. A list of essential literature may be quoted without critical analysis. There is an indication of future work;
