Bringing a product to the market requires an understanding of concept creation, idea development, testing and quality improvement, all within the confines of regulatory requirements. This module integrates the principles and methods of engineering, science and innovation into the lifecycle of marketed industrial products. This coursework is Aimed at individuals seeking to improve their knowledge in the topics of product development, validation and authorisation. Owing to common applicability of these industrial areas, concepts introduced will be generic in nature but this module will also cater for the more advanced, sector-specific, needs such as those within agri-food, medical technologies and pharmaceuticals. Through the module's project assessment, the learner will gain practical experience of the stages of product development, validation and/or authorisation within their industry.

The Active Female: Through The Lifespan (HEA1059)

This micro-credential equips engineers and other design professionals with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions based on quantifiable environmental evidence relating to the impacts of their products and services. You'll gain a deep understanding of the life cycle framework, and how we can achieve truly sustainable outcomes by balancing environmental, economic, and social considerations in product and project development. You can enable and implement effective strategies in your current role or future career to shape a low-carbon and resource-efficient future, and become a leader in more nuanced eco-metrics, such as circularity measurement and assessment..As part of the course, you will apply your learning to undertake a detailed, hands-on LCA of an engineering product, process or system, and apply life cycle principles to potentially reduce its environmental impacts.How will this Micro-credential be delivered?This micro-credential will be delivered fully online for maximum flexibility. You'll have:<ul><li>Six self-directed sessions, released every Monday fortnight during the semester, that have mandatory pre-recorded lectures and recommended reading sessions.</li><li>Six live and online tutorial/discussion group sessions (which are also recorded), taking place Wednesday/Thursday evenings after the release of each self-directed lesson.</li> </ul>

There is now widespread recognition that the global food system is unsustainable, particularly in the context of climate change. This means it is responsible for adverse environmental and social impacts. An important question each individual should ask, and answer, is: how sustainable is my food? This module will explore the evidence to help us answer this and related questions including: Is the food we choose to eat contributing to climate change and causing impacts, in Ireland and beyond, that will result in future generations inheriting a significantly degraded environment?Is the food we eat supplied to us at prices we are willing to pay due to social exploitation?Is the food we have access to needlessly wasted?Module participants will also examine their own diet and work out what kind of impacts they have. Finally, we will explore the possibility of fixing the food system so that we can eat sustainable food.
