  1. Engineering has made modern life possible

  2. Think of one aspect of life not revolutionised by Engineering

  3. What is Engineering at University? • Design and manufacture of Machines • Applied Science • Topics, Computer Aided Design, Thermodynamics & Fluid Mechanics, Dynamics, Electronics, Control Theory, Material Science, Production Systems.

  4. My Pathway • GCSEs and A Levels at Portadown College • Mechanical Engineering at QUB • MSc in Polymer Engineering & Science QUB/UU • PhD Mechanical Engineering QUB • 5 years in research positions at UU • Lecturer in School of Engineering since 2006

  5. My Work • 50% teaching, lectures, tutorials, final year projects, etc. • 50% research, consultancy projects, PhD students, papers, grant applications

  6. Courses offered in the School of Engineering Biomedical Engineering TOPICS Energy generation and storage, environmental pollution, clean water technology and clean manufacturing Clean Technology
