Course programme

Initially, all students follow the same programme covering topics which we believe are important for all engineers to understand. By the second term of Year Two you are able to specialise in Civil or switch to one of the other Engineering courses (such as: Automotive, Biomedical Systems, Electronic, Electrical and Electronic, Engineering Business Management, Mechanical, Manufacturing and Mechanical, or, Systems).

There are nine core modules in the first year which are currently:

  • Dynamics and Thermodynamics
  • Electrical and Electronic Circuits
  • Engineering Design
  • Engineering Mathematics
  • Introduction to Engineering Business Management
  • Introduction to Engineering: Professionalism and Practice
  • Materials for Engineering
  • Statics and Structures
  • Systems Modelling, Simulation and Computing

You are also free to take A Modern Foreign Language module as an optional extra.

In the second year there are six core modules which are currently:

  • Dynamics and Fluid Mechanics
  • Electromechanical System Design
  • Engineering Mathematics and Technical Computing
  • Industrial Engineering
  • Manufacturing Engineering Design
  • Technical Operations Management

Optional modules currently include

  • Failure Investigation
  • Introduction to Secondary School Teaching (Physics)
  • A Modern Foreign Language
  • Motor Vehicle Technology
  • Starting a Business

In Year 3 you will complete an individual project and study core modules of:

  • Automation and Robotics
  • CAD/CAM and Simulation
  • Design and Management of Lean Operations
  • Design for Manufacture
  • Lifecycle Engineering for Manufacturing Systems
  • Quality Techniques

Engineering is an actively developing subject and so modules listed represent those available to current students. As the subject of Engineering and our school continuously evolve, the range of modules available and the content of individual modules may change in future years. Applicants will be informed as soon as the changes are approved. Current students will be consulted prior to the changes been approved.
