Course programme

Year 1

The first 8 months are normally spent focusing on the taught component, with lectures divided into two 12-week periods (Semesters 1 and 2), and with exams at the end of each semester. “Concurrent Engineering Design” is worth 30 credits and contains a group design activity. The final 4 months are spent full-time on an individual research project.
