Overview
This professional training will provide you with essential engineering skills and knowledge to become a successful engineer and/or researcher. It will also provide you with the knowledge and understanding of participating in research projects and designing engineering projects. To stay competitive in the field of electrical and electronics engineering, universities and organizations need experienced engineers with research skills and an understanding of engineering management, engineering design, and research methods. This 8-week training is designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills you need to participate in electrical and electronics engineering projects. It will also train you to participate in doctoral or postdoctoral research.
This 8-week professional engineering training aims to provide essential knowledge for developing your early engineering or research career.
Training Journey
The online distance-learning training will provide opportunities to receive expertise from the Cambridge Centre for Innovation and Development (CamCID) researchers. This internship includes eight weeks of research and engineering-based tasks.
Module 1: Developing a research proposal
In the first module, you will gain knowledge of writing your research proposal. You will develop your research idea and learn to develop a research project plan for your own project ideas. You will also get valuable comments and suggestions for improvements from our teachers.
Module 2: Designing and engineering
In this module, you will gain knowledge and skills of engineering designing, and participate in the task to design engineering facility/product/equipment/device.
Module 3: Engineering management
You will learn the principles of engineering project management and gain knowledge to manage projects successfully. You will participate in the project management task during this module.
Module 4: Engineering research project
You will work on a short literature review project and apply your knowledge of electrical and electronics in your research project. The project aims to improve your academic writing, research, critical thinking, and literature search skills.
Material and eBooks
We will provide you with all the programme material and eBooks in the training for your learning and the cost of the material is included in the registration fee.
Fees and Funding
UK and International: £275 (including all the material, eBooks, and electronic certificate fee).
