About this course

Our curriculum integrates business and technical content, developing your engineering expertise alongside knowledge of the full range of business functions, equipping you to find your place in an increasingly competitive global marketplace. In your first year you will study the core modules common to all our Engineering degrees . In the second year you can start personalising your course. You will not determine your final degree course until the second year, ensuring that you can make an informed choice. The main difference between the Engineering Business Management (EBM) and Engineering and Business Studies (EBS) degree streams is the proportion of business material encountered in the third year of study, EBS having more.

Our graduates have gone on to work for organisations including: Jaguar Land Rover, Barclays Bank, NHS Institute for Innovation, Aston Martin, Deutsche Bank.

Examples of our graduates’ job roles include: Business Systems Analyst, Graduate Civil Engineer, Aerodynamacist, Structural Engineer, Technology trader.

A level: AAA to include A level Mathematics and Physics.

IB: 38 points to include 6,6 in Mathematics and Physics. At least one of those subjects should be at Higher level.
