MEng Engineering with Renewable Energy
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) in Engineering with Renewable Energy is an undergraduate engineering degree within chemical engineering. Core topics include Programming, Signal Processing, and Engineering Design. The four-year full-time course concludes with an individual final project and spans core engineering principles through to specialist renewable energy technologies. The first year covers foundational concepts with modules such as Introduction to Engineering, Mathematics, Programming and Digital Interfacing, and Analogue Electronics. The second year progresses with Mathematics, Signals and Systems, Manufacturing and Fabrication, and Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics. The third year shifts focus to renewable applications through Renewable Power Generation, Engineering Group Project Part A, Photovoltaics and Solar Thermal Technology, and Engineering Group Project Part B, alongside optional subjects like Advanced Sensors and Instrumentation and Digital Signal Processing. The fourth year includes Sustainability in Engineering Management, Smart Grid, and the Individual Final Project, with further optional modules such as Electric Vehicle Technologies and Power Electronics.
