## Description

The University of Plymouth is looking to reinforce its reputation as an innovative centre of excellence for engineering research, teaching and learning\. The new Engineering and Design facility \(NEDF\) being constructed on the western edge of the main Plymouth campus will provide a new home for the specialist laboratories and teaching facilities of the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics and the School of Art, Design and Architecture\. NEDF integrates a fully refurbished Babbage Building with a new-build, wrap-around area to create more than 10,400m² of research laboratories and teaching spaces\. New, state-of-the-art resources are planned that will enable engineering teaching and research to underpin the fourth industrial revolution and complement existing equipment\. The new building and its physical resources will inspire the development of new inter-disciplinary activities in teaching, learning and research, and nurture the innovative graduate engineers demanded by future society\. NEDF provides an opportunity to enlarge our student-centred facilities for understanding thermodynamic and fluid mechanic working principles\. To this end, we wish to extend and complement our existing laboratory equipment with new teaching equipment especially designed to support inquiry-led learning through experimentation\.
