Product Design Engineering
The PDE Project Exhibition is your chance to see the results of inspiring projects from the 3rd year students of the Product Design Engineering degree programme. Many of the project themes are inspired by industry and/or leading edge research from the Wolfson School of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering. It is our aim to give people in industry the opportunity to view the excellent work produced by our students and encourage future links to be made with our emerging graduates. The undergraduates also very much appreciate feedback on their work from an industrial perspective.
Total Product Design Exhibition
In parallel the exhibition will also include projects from the Total Product Design module. These team projects are all industrially specified and sponsored. Each team consists of five 4th year Masters Students working over an entire academic year. The projects show the application Integrated Design in order to equip students with the necessary design skills, project engineering and management skills they will require in industry.
You will also be able to see examples of 2nd year group design and make project work from the Applied Product Design Module.

What is a Product Design Engineer?
The rapid evolution of products is key to the global economy. Products change functionally and aesthetically, hence the key ingredient for any product’s success is the skill of the Product Design Engineers.
Product Design Engineers have the challenging task of combining creative, aesthetic and technical design skills, with a background of engineering science. It is important that they are able to design a new product that satisfies the original functional specification and is appealing to the potential market. Furthermore, understanding the operating principles of manufacturing processes and technologies, is critical to allowing quality products to be designed and realised in the right quantities, to an appropriate level of quality, and at the right price.
The IMechE, IET and IED accredited programme in Product Design Engineering provides breadth and depth of product design and manufacturing technologies, reinforces team working and leadership skills, and promotes self-sufficiency, self-motivation and initiative. Team working and project management are critical aspects of design and engineering development that are practiced throughout the programme, both within modules, and industry based project work.
