Entry requirements

A level: AAA including Maths. IB: 36 points overall with grade 5 in Higher Level Mathematics - Applications and Interpretation or 5 in Higher Level or Standard Level Mathematics - Analysis and Approaches. BTEC: We consider a range of BTEC qualifications equivalent to 3 A Levels, or in combination with A Levels or other qualifications. For example: DDD in the BTEC National Extended Diploma plus A level Maths grade A DD in the BTEC National Diploma in any subject plus A level Maths grade A D in the BTEC National Extended Certificate plus AA at A level including Mathematics We consider BTEC Level 3 National Diploma/ Extended Diploma with Unit 7- Calculus to Solve Engineering Problems and Unit 8- Further Engineering Mathematics in place of A Level Mathematics.

About this course

MEng (Hons) Engineering, an engineering degree exploring electronic, electrical, mechanical and mechatronic principles. Core topics include Programming, Signal Processing, and Engineering Design. Students can undertake an optional industrial placement year prior to the final year of study. This four-year course is fully accredited by the IET towards Chartered Engineer status. The first year introduces fundamental concepts through modules such as Introduction to Engineering, Programming and Digital Interfacing, Mathematics, and Materials and Mechanics. The second year continues with compulsory study in Mathematics, Signals and Systems, Engineering Project 2, and Manufacturing and Fabrication. The third year incorporates compulsory group projects alongside optional pathways covering topics like Renewable Power Generation, Biomedical Engineering, and Robotics Design and Construction. The final year centres on an Individual Final Project alongside optional advanced modules such as Electric Vehicle Technologies, Scientific Supercomputing, and Machine Vision and Human Machine Interaction.
