This course equips students with a general understanding of the law relating to the rights and obligations of purchasers and sellers as provided under the Sale of Goods Act, the Hire Purchase Act and the Consumer Protection Act. An examination is also made of the legal basis of businesses such as partnerships and companies. The legality of negotiable instruments is also explored as well as issues relating to VAT.
This course provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the law as it relates to criminal activity by outlining the main ingredients of a crime and identifying actions regarded as crimes as opposed to moral wrongs. An understanding is also provided of the crimes of strict and vicarious liability as well as defenses available in law.
This course equips students with an understanding of the law concerning Intellectual Property. The various types of rights protection are examined including trademarks, copyrights and patents. Further, an examination of the processes of registration of such rights and various laws, treaties and conventions that relate to the topic is provided.
This course is designed to encourage students to develop a sound knowledge and understanding of economic terminology, principles and elementary economic theory so that it may be applied to the economy in which we live.
The purpose of the syllabus is to encourage students to develop knowledge and understanding of the microelements of an economy and how they function to determine market equilibria.
In this course you will analyse the impact of increasingly dynamic business environments and increasingly volatile markets on an organisation’s ability to compete successfully using a range of relevant tools and frameworks. This is often known as business strategy.

This course is a follow-up to EDWG 161. It introduces students to design concepts and their application to a variety of fasteners and other mechanisms. Topics include fasteners, bearings, and interpenetration and surface development gears. Basic engineering materials and computer aided drawing and design are introduced.
This course introduces the students to computer-aided drafting and design and seeks to develop within the student, a duplication of those drafting skills and related competencies essential to efficiency in the professional work environment of a typical design office. Commencing with the drawing of basic shapes, this course introduces 2-D modeling but emphasis is on familiarization of the software package.
This course seeks to prepare students to utilize computer-aided drafting and design techniques to develop within the student, a duplication of those drafting skills and related competencies that are essential to efficiency in the professional work environment of a typical design office. Continuing with more complex shapes, this course emphasizes 2-D modeling but concludes with supplementary work in three-dimensional space.
This course grounds students in concepts of Physics which are foundational to disciplines in Mechanical, Electrical and Building & Civil engineering. The student begins with concepts easily linked to their everyday experience – the nature and transfer of heat and its effect on materials. The exposure goes on to the transmission of various forms of Electromagnetic and Mechanical energy and radioactive emissions. The nature and transmission of light and sound are given special treatment.
This course introduce students to the Engineering Science concepts of Units, Forces, Stress and Moments through calculations. Students will be provided with a sound knowledge of Units, Forces Stress and Moments which would allow them to carry out basic calculations and have an understanding of how these calculations can be apply to mechanical maintenance work.
