’s College of Physical Sciences. Cardiff School of Engineering has approximately 1,600 undergraduate and postgraduate students and employs around 300 academic, research, technical and administrative staff. The School offers taught undergraduate and postgraduate degrees (BEng, MEng, and MSc) and postgraduate research degrees (PhD) in a range of engineering subjects, as well as being involved in a number of community, commercial and industrial partnerships. The school hosts academic conferences and is involved in large scale research and engineering projects, particularly in the field of renewable energy such as wind turbines power grid efficiency and tidal power generation. Other topics under research include traditional engineering studies such as
metal fatigue In materials science, fatigue is the initiation and propagation of cracks in a material due to cyclic loading. Once a fatigue crack has initiated, it grows a small amount with each loading cycle, typically producing striations on some parts o ...
and waste disposal engineering as well as new fields of study such as carbon management in energy production. The school of engineering is organised into three departments with associated research groups. * Architectural, Civil and Environmental Engineering * Electrical and Electronic Engineering * Mechanical and Medical Engineering


Institutes

Research at the School of Engineering is organised into seven research institutes: *Institute of Energy *Institute of Environment and Sustainability *BRE Institute of Sustainable Engineering *Institute of Mechanics and Advanced Materials *Institute of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering *Institute of Medical Engineering and Medical Physics *Institute of Green Electronic Systems
