Further information

  • English and Mathematics level 2 (GCSE A*-C, 4-8 or equivalent) and a level 3 qualification (A level, BTech, Diploma or equivalent) is the usual minimum entry requirement.  

  • Students are taught through a series of lectures, tutorials, laboratories and practical sessions. Assessment of progress is made through a combination of laboratory-based practicals, assignments, presentations, exams and individual projects.

    Module assessment is often by assignment, or assignment and examination. The final mark for some modules may include one or more pieces of coursework set and completed during the module. Project work is assessed by a written report and presentation.

    One of the main parts of the final year will be the final year project. This is a work-based project that will allow students to use the knowledge built up through the course to solve a genuine workplace-engineering problem.
