Data, Processes and Digital Design in Engineering Management

Code: CIVE472

Credits: 15

Semester: Semester 2

Professional Engineering Managers need to understand data, data handling/security and engineering-based digital systems/tools in their everyday working environment. Digital process and software are critical for engineering design, operations and projects and this module teaches students the theory, practice and application of these processes (e.g., which tools to use, the skills needed by teams, how to mitigate against change and disruptors) and, more importantly, their use/impact in engineering management (e.g., energy & hardware cost, date security, GDPR, legacy systems, etc). Students will develop the core skills needed to assess, evaluate and make informed, sound decisions on the applicability, use and longevity of data management systems and digital technology.
