This module provides an introduction to intensive group project work in collaboration with an industrial or academic customer. Students work in groups of at least four people on a project typically based on an idea from an industrial partner, or from an academic research project looking to transfer technology to industry or build a demonstrator/proof of concept.

This group project enables you to apply your conceptual engineering and science knowledge to an engineering design problem. The ideas are developed through detailed design, experimentation, computer modelling and/or manufacture. You will also consider and manage wider aspects such as the (a) social, (b) economic, (c) political, (d) legislative, (e) environmental, (f) cultural, (g) ethical (h) and sustainability issues related to the subject matter of the project.

Working in groups you will meet regularly with your supervisor and any external sponsor, develop your team working, plan your project, present your work through meetings with your supervisor and sponsor and also prepare and submit reports and oral presentations. You will consolidate your project management skills. At all times you will monitor your progress as a team to ensure you are achieving the objectives set and ensuring quality of output.

This group project enables you to apply your conceptual engineering and science knowledge to an engineering design problem. The ideas are developed through the output of individual Final Year Projects (FYPs) and include detailed design, experimentation, computer modelling and/or manufacture.

Group theory is one of the great simplifying and unifying ideas in modern mathematics. It was introduced in order to understand the solutions to polynomial equations, but only in the last one
hundred years has its full significance, as a mathematical formulation of symmetry, been understood. It plays a role in our understanding of fundamental particles, the structure of crystal lattices and the geometry of molecules.

In this module we build on material from Linear Algebra II and will begin by revising the simple axioms satisfied by groups and begin to develop basic group theory by reference to some elementary
examples. We will analyse the structure of 'small' finite groups, and examine examples arising as groups of permutations of a set, symmetries of regular polygons and regular solids, and groups of
matrices. We will develop the notions of homomorphism, normal subgroups and quotient groups and study the First Isomorphism Theorem and its application.

We will also examine how the notion of a permutation group can be generalized to that of a group action on a set, and will show how to use this in certain counting problems arising in combinatorics. We will also see how to use group actions to prove strong results about the structure of finite groups. We shall study Sylow’s Theorems and some of their applications.
