BEng (Hons) Engineering Design Degree

Throughout this programme you will study several core areas including; Advanced Engineering (20 credits): This unit provides learners with knowledge and understanding of modern/non-traditional engineering technologies and tools. The learners will develop their ability to investigate the emerging engineering technologies and their integration/adoption by industries and future applications.

Computational Engineering (20 credits): This unit aims to develop learner's ability to apply analytical methods efficiently and effectively in the analysis and design of complex components and structures, and performance in service using both analytical and computer tools.

Innovation and Professional Practice (20 credits): The aim of this unit is to equip learners with skills, knowledge, and understanding of the approaches to strategic management and thinking which will be examined to capitalise on their entrepreneurial spirit and business acumen. It emphasises the importance of organisational development, leadership, human resource management, equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). It also focuses on identifying and mitigating risks, including security and cyber-security risks, and understanding intellectual property rights, standards, and quality management systems.

Mechatronics (20 credits): This unit focuses on the integration of engineering disciplines for producing flexible and intelligent solutions to engineering problems, including both products and processes. It emphasises the application of mechanics, electronics, simulation, and design and equips learners with the latest technologies for understanding, applying, and integrating mechanical and electronic concepts.

BEng Project (40 credits): The aims of this unit is to enable the learner to effectively and appropriately investigate and communicate a major piece of engineering project work and give the learner experience of working on a work-based design project.

Note: All learners doing this course with integrated degree apprenticeship will be enrolled on a corresponding End Point Assessment module in the place of BEng project.
