Design, simulate,
engineer the future

From concept to validation – mastering design tools like Creo, Fusion 360, and SolidWorks, paired with powerful simulation and analysis platforms including MATLAB, CFD tools, and Ansys. This major bridges the gap between digital modelling and engineering reality.

Design and analysis are the twin pillars of engineering innovation — we see this as a critical pathway. That's why we made it a major: to equip engineers with the digital tools to create, validate, and optimise systems before they're built. digital engineering

Design software as the engineering canvas

Creo, Fusion 360, and SolidWorks are the industry standards for 3D modelling and product design. This major gives you hands-on experience with all three, teaching you parametric modelling, assembly design, and how to create engineering drawings that communicate your ideas clearly.

design = creativity + precision + iteration

Simulation & analysis – the engineering safety net

MATLAB, CFD tools, and Ansys allow you to test, validate, and optimise your designs virtually. From fluid dynamics to structural FEA, this major teaches you how to use simulation to predict real-world performance and make data-driven engineering decisions.

why design & analysis matter for every engineer

Rapid prototyping — turn ideas into 3D models in hours, not weeks.
Virtual testing — validate performance before physical production, saving time and resources.
Iterative optimisation — use simulation to refine designs and achieve better performance.
Data‑driven decisions — analyse simulation results to make informed engineering choices.
Industry‑ready skills — gain proficiency in tools used by leading engineering firms worldwide.
Multiphysics understanding — explore coupled phenomena like fluid‑structure interaction and thermal‑mechanical behaviour.

Innovation happens when you can visualise, simulate, and refine. That's what we cultivate.
