Course Objectives: To develop design skills according to a Conceive-Design-Implement-
Operate(CDIO)compliant methodology. To apply engineering sciences through learning-by- doing
project work. To provide a framework to encourage creativity and innovation. To develop team work
and communication skills through group-based activity. To foster self- directed learning and critical
evaluation.

To provide a basis for the technical aspects of the project a small number of lectures are incorporated
into the module. As the students would have received little in the way of formal engineering
instruction at this early stage in the degree course, the level of the lectures is to be introductory with
an emphasis on the physical aspects of the subject matter as applied to the ‘Mangonel’ project. The
lecture series include subject areas such as Materials, Structures, Dynamics and Digital Electronics
delivered by experts in the field.

Thismoduleisdeliveredusingacombinationofintroductorylecturesandparticipation by the students in

15“activities”. The activities are executed to support the syllabus of the course and might take place in
specialised laboratories or on the open ground used for firing the Mangonel. Students work in groups
throughout the semester to encourage teamwork, cooperation and to avail of the different skills of its
members. In the end the students work in sub-groups to do the Mangonel throwing arm redesign
project. They assemble and operate a Mangonel, based on the lectures and tutorials assignments of
mechanical engineering they experiment with the working, critically analyse the effect of design
changes and implement the final project in a competition. Presentation of the group assembly,
redesign and individual reflection of the project is assessed in the end.
