Module Synopsis
Module 1: Engineering Mathematics
The aim of this module is to develop the mathematics skills needed by the students to underpin the engineering. The students would learn the various statistical and analytical methods in analysing and solving problems. Upon completion of the module , the students would be able to apply various mathematical methods and statistical techniques to interpret the data and solve the engineering related problems.
Module 2: Principles and need of Facilities management
The aim of this module is to develop skills in managing facility staff and corporate assets while minimizing risk exposure in the workplace. As the Facilities Management (FM) function continues to evolve, this training course offers the latest thinking in the profession, right balance between asset performance (functionality, availability, reliability, safety), and will tackle specific issues encountered on the ground and apply best practices in discussing real solutions.
Module 3: CAD and Simulation
The aim of this course is to introduce students about the concepts and need of CAD designs and its related simulations. This module would be covering on 2D and 3D design theory, its concepts in a practical way . This module would be introducing CAD tool like AUTOCAD or SolidWorks and would go through the basic command on drawing 2D and 3D designs. The module would be covering the basic mathematical concepts needed for CAD based designs
Module 4: Fundamentals of Electrical and Mechanical
The course covers the basic of Electrical and Mechancial Design, 4 Key items and the basics Mechanical & Electrical components. The students would learn the design concepts, the need, applications interface of Electrical and Mechanical design. At the end of the course, the students would understand the various fundaments concepts in electrical and mechanicals design used in building and other application
Module 5: Facility Management Principles
The aim of this course is to give a brief Introduction to Facilities Management. Every organisation relies on a mix of functions and services to provide the support essential to its core business operations. Ensuring that this support is available in the right form, at the right quality and for the right cost is the task of facilities management.
Module 6: Green and Sustainable Building Technology
The aim of the module aims to examine how both buildings and services can be designed in an integrated way to minimise energy use with green building technology. This will become an increasingly important aspect of the work of engineers who will work in ever closer consultation with the architect, structural engineer and design team in the years ahead. A brief description of the different constructional methodologies are also discussed in the modules.
Module 7: Building Automation Technology
The modules discuss about the various building automation technologies. The State-of-the-art smart buildings play a key role in the advanced power grids known as smart grids. By expertly combining building technology with energy transmission and distribution, smart grids can significantly improve energy efficiency while reducing greenhouse gas emissions with ground-breaking effect
Module 8: Risk Management and Business Continuity
This topic would cover the Business continuity management and disaster recovery are about an organization being prepared for business disruption and taking the necessary actions to get the business operational as soon as possible after an incident occurs. This course provides a strong foundation in each area by looking at what business continuity management is, why it’s important and how it can be implemented within the overall risk management process, before reviewing the disaster recovery process.
