- Engineering Materials
- Engineering Mathematics 1
- Fluid Mechanics and Energy Transfer
- Mechanics 1
Year 2
This year you will begin to specialise. Your core courses will include digital systems and embedded computing, electronic circuits, devices and electromagnetics, maths for engineering, energy systems and control, communications systems, and software engineering. You will enjoy undertaking both discipline-specific and interdisciplinary group projects. In recent years students have built, programmed and raced robots in the end of year challenge. Assessments in the integrated design project are devised in consultation with our partners in industry, and are presented in an end of term showcase. All modules compulsory.
- Digital Electronics and Electrical Machines - 20 credits
- Engineering Mathematics 2 - 20 credits
- Electronic Circuits and Devices and Electromagnetics - 20 credits
- Integrated Design Project 2 - 20 credits
- Microprocessors and Control Systems - 20 credits
- Communication Systems - 10 credits
- Multidisciplinary Systems and Software Engineering - 10 credits
This is your final year and now you can really focus on the areas that interest you the most. You will apply the creative, technical, analytical and decision making skills you have developed into delivering an individual research project as well as a group design project. You will choose options to complete your degree, see the module section below.
