ENG 3004 - Systems Engineering and Industry Practice

North Terrace Campus - Semester 1 - 2022

Good engineering solutions require consideration of systems thinking, including elements such as stakeholder requirements, life cycle management, and design documentation. This course will show how to apply a systems engineering approach to all of the elements of a universal engineering project: the consideration of the various stages of design, which include problem identification, concept generation, concept selection and design embodiment; and the fundamentals of good design practice, including aesthetics, ergonomics and safety. This course provides graphical, written and spoken language development in professional engineering industry contexts, as well as an awareness of the importance of career planning. Industry concerns such as ethical practice, sustainability, and environmental impact are strongly emphasised.

  • Learning Resources
    Recommended Resources
    There are a number of resources that are relevant to this course. Where applicable, they will be referenced in the course material for further reading. 
    Online Learning
    MyUni will be used for the course. Course information, lecture slides, lecture recordings, assignments and additional resources will all be available on MyUni.

    MyUni-Canvas
    This course will operate with the MyUni Learning Management System platform, Canvas.

    MyUni Announcements
    The announcement section will be used to notify students of important information, with critical announcements (changes to deadlines etc.) also emailed to students. It is assumed and expected that students take note of these announcements.

    MyUni Discussion Board
    The discussion board will also be used as a consultation channel for contact with teaching staff. Questions for teaching staff of a general nature relating to the course or assignment requirements are to be posted on MyUni. This allows the responses to be viewed by other students with similar questions and ensures that all students are given the same information.

  • Student Feedback

    The University places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

    SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the University to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

  • Student Support
  • Policies & Guidelines
  • Fraud Awareness

    Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
