Description Of Individual Courses in UofG:

Aeronautical Engineering:
It is a highly advanced engineering discipline about how flight is possible and how flying vehicles are designed, manufactured, powered, operated and safely controlled. Vehicles range from fixed-wing aeroplanes to helicopters with rotary wings, and from small unmanned drones to large commercial airliners. You will learn to analyse and understand the vehicle’s behaviour, predict its performance, understand its propulsion and power systems, and perform detailed design of structural components. Individual project work will give you a fantastic opportunity to apply all the knowledge, skills and understanding gained throughout your studies. Aerospace Systems:
The study of aerospace systems requires a fusion of concepts from aeronautical, electrical and systems engineering. Virtually all modern aircraft, from airliners to micro unmanned systems, rely on complex and comprehensive onboard systems. You will learn how these systems are designed, implemented and operated, and how they can lead to improvements in the operation, performance and safety of aerospace vehicles. Individual project work will give you an excellent opportunity to apply all of the knowledge, skills and understanding gained throughout your studies. This degree programme will help you to embark on a career in the aerospace and related industries. Computer Science:
It is the study of information, computation and computational thinking. It is wide-ranging, from programming, programming languages and engineering large software systems, to the design and evaluation of human/computer interfaces, algorithms, computer and network systems, and information retrieval and storage systems. This programme will provide you with a deep understanding of the theory and practice of computing and give you the opportunity to study a broad range of computer science topics. The programme encourages independent study habits that will stand you in good stead throughout your professional career. Mechanical Design Engineering:
It is an honours degree course equips students with knowledge, understanding and skills for mechanical engineering and design with greener concepts, technologies and methodologies for the benefit of society. This degree programme seeks to meet the industrial challenges and greener demands by producing innovative engineers with the capabilities and aptitude for the design of novel engineering products, especially in key industries in Singapore such as aerospace, maritime, robotics and healthcare. Mechanical design engineers are essential for the design and development of mechanisms, components and structures which are integral parts of the automotive, marine, aerospace, biomedical, chemical, construction, environmental, and powergeneration industries among others. Mechatronics:
The Mechatronics Honours degree course equips students with knowledge, understanding and skills for synergistic integration of mechanical engineering with electronics and intelligent computer control in the design and manufacturing of greener industrial products and processes. This interdisciplinary programme allows students to combine traditionally divided disciplines with an industry focus for varied career opportunities, especially to meet the increasing demand in greener products and processes and in sustainable manufacturing in Asia. Mechatronics engineers excel in their work on hybrid systems in varied fields of research and development such as environmentally friendly transportation systems, production systems, synergy drives, planetary exploration rovers, automotive subsystems such as anti-lock braking systems and spin-assist, and everyday equipment such as auto-focus cameras, video, hard disks, and CD players. Mechanical Engineering:
Jointly offered by SIT and the University of Glasgow (UofG), the Bachelor of Engineering with Honours in Mechanical Engineering is a three-year honours degree programme designed to meet the growing manpower demands in many disruptive digital technologies for key industry sectors in Singapore, including industrial automation/robotics, smart manufacturing, maritime and healthcare assistive technology. Students will be equipped with the knowledge, understanding and skills for mechanical engineering and acquire advanced knowledge in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), data analytics, healthcare systems engineering and standards, smart designs and robotics/automation, through project-based multidisciplinary learning and direct industrial immersion. Students will have a choice of specialisation in Design or Mechatronics. Aerospace Engineering:
ointly offered by SIT and the University of Glasgow (UofG), the Bachelor of Engineering with Honours in Aerospace Engineering is a three-year honours degree programme that will equip students with the specific skill set necessary to meet the growing manpower demands in the local and global aerospace industry with a specific emphasis on autonomous aerial vehicles. Students will be equipped with sound foundations in engineering through appropriate mathematics and physics courses, upon which specific unmanned aerial systems knowledge will be built. The programme also includes a mandatory Overseas Immersion Programme (OIP), during which students will undertake a group project as well as witness industry best practices through industrial site visits in Glasgow
