The job of the Engineer is to be a problem solver and my experience at Exeter provided me with key problem solving skills that were directly applicable to working in the industry. I am driven by results and would advise students looking for employment to bear this in mind. Be a problem solver, use a holistic approach and take responsibility for being a ‘can-do’ member of the team. Keeping up to date with current trends is also crucial. George Sakyi, MSc Engineering and Management (2003), Managing Director, Mont Royal Technologies (Ghana)


ENGINEERING FACILITIES

Our engineering teaching facilities recently underwent a multi-million pound refurbishment including the re-equipment of student workshops and the development of a state-of-the-art 3D visualisation and rapid prototyping suite. The aerodynamics laboratory comprises wind tunnels with computerised lift/ drag balance and hot-wire anemometry equipment for velocity measurement, with the fluids laboratory offering facilities for the testing of marine renewable energy generation devices. Our thermodynamics and energy laboratory contains thermodynamics experiments, a computerised engine test bed and renewable energy experiments. The structures laboratory facilitates the testing of full-size structural elements. Students can also investigate the structural properties of elements using fullycomputerised equipment including TQ Modular Structures rigs. The Vibration Engineering Section’s vibration platform, installed in 2014, allows the measurement and modelling of vibration performance in

structures such as bridges, office floors and stadia. Adjacent is the materials laboratory, housing an array of tensile test equipment. We also have a wide range of equipment for materials engineering and manufacturing, including 3D printing and nanofabrication. We are home to the Centre for Additive Layer Manufacturing, the Centre for Alternative and Remanufacturing Technologies and the Centre for Graphene Science, from where we conduct research and work with industry on a consultancy and facility provision basis. We also have access to the University’s EPSRC-funded IMB Supercomputer SP3 system, and to a Beowulf parallel computing cluster. Students additionally benefit from 24 hour access to the Forum Library, part of the University’s £48 million centrepiece development the Forum, opened in 2012 by Her Majesty the Queen. 5


The environment stands out for me as a unique factor in studying at the University of Exeter. It is a beautiful place to live and the University seems to be strategically placed right in the heart of this part of the UK. Coming from the hustle and bustle of city life, I liked that Exeter is serene and studyfriendly but also offers the chance to experience and enjoy the British culture first-hand. Samuel Owusu, MSc Engineering and Management graduate

LIVING IN EXETER Students at the University of Exeter benefit from living in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. It’s no wonder our students are consistently amongst the most satisfied in the UK. Set in the heart of the beautiful Devon countryside, Exeter boasts a high quality of life, a clean and fresh environment, and low crime rate, providing a welcoming environment for students, with a vibrant and fun culture and relaxed atmosphere.

With a population of only 120,000, there are plenty of cafés, restaurants, pubs and modern shops which sit alongside Exeter’s beautiful historic buildings. Most new students find that Exeter is not a particularly expensive city in which to live.

The University campus is within easy walking distance of the city centre and you will find all that you need conveniently located in a very compact area, with the inspiring medieval Cathedral as a focal point just off the main shopping street.

The region’s exquisite coastline and impressive national parks are only a short drive, cycle, bus or train journey away.
