Year 2 Semester 1 Modules

For those of you who didnt know what class am i posted to this year, it's DCP/FT/2B/21. I'm happy that i get into polymer tech option. 2B22 is my buddy class. Here are the modules that I'm going to expect:

CP4036 Quality Assurance & Statistics [QAAS]
Provides an understanding of the important concepts on Quality Assurance, Statistical Analysis and Experimental Design in the chemical manufacturing industry. Topics covered include statistical tools used for quality assurance, hypothesis testing, analysis of variance, factorial design of experiments and acceptance sampling plan.

CP4041 Polymer Processing I [PPI]
Covers the injection moulding processes. Topics covered include processing parameters, moulding faults and remedies, mould design and quality plan. Includes practical training in mould set-up, process optimisation, flow simulation, gas injection and CD moulding.

CP4079 Strength and Properties of Materials [SPM]
Covers normal stress and strain, Hookes law, Poissons Ratio, thermal strain, shear stress and strain, moments of inertia, parallel axis, theorem, perpendicular axis theory, bending of beams, centroid, neutral axis, neutral plane, radius of curvature, Youngs modulus, bending moment and torsion. Other topics covered include mechanical testing of materials which include tensile, flexural, impact, hardness and creep.

CP4094 The Art & Science of Colours [TASC]
Provides students with basic knowledge in the science and technology of colours with an appreciation of psychology and physiology of colours.

CP4100 Nanomaterials [NM]
Provides a basic understanding of nanotechnology, the current and potential uses of nanomaterials and their impact on our society. Students will be introduced to the different types of nanomaterials their preparation, characterisation and applications.

CP4101 Graphics & Mould Design [GMD]
Develops the students ability to create and interpret engineering drawings through the use of computer graphics and sketching as well as to provide students with the knowledge of plastic injection mould design.

MS2227 Engineering Mathematics II [EMII]
Equips students with an adequate mathematical knowledge and skills in integration, and solving first and second order differential equations. Students also learn how to use mathematical software.

My GEM Module:
MM011B Quality Management [QM]
Provides students with basic concepts and knowledge of quality management and quality system standard. The interpretation and understanding of requirements of various quality system elements of ISO 9000 will be covered. Students will also be taught the quality audit process. The concepts will be taught through lectures, tutorials and video clips. Students will be given assignments, quiz and tests to reinforcement as well as assess their understanding of the knowledge.

So in total, I will be taking 8 modules (incl GEMS) this coming semester while ppl in food tech & Industrial Chem take 7 modules !!! Oh well, What can I say...

Yup, that's about it.
