Cambridge Broad Based Engineering
You will be treated as though you are a first-year undergraduate, with lectures, experimental work and projects in the University's Department of Engineering. You will live in Jesus College and experience a Cambridge supervision (be taught in pairs by a senior member of the University). Some of the topics will stretch you considerably but you should enjoy them if you're good at mathematics and physics.
Topics likely to be included:
-
Structures: Learning how to analyse the forces in structures made from trusses
-
Fluids: Learn why water may suddenly jump when flowing in a channel
-
Engines: Strip down a diesel engine, rebuild it and get it going
-
Materials: Test a number of materials and discover how they behave and why
-
Design: Design, construct, program and test robot vehicles
