Programme overview

Main Subject

Engineering Management

Degree

BEng

Study Level

Undergraduate

Study Mode

On Campus

Year 1 introduces you to the fundamental skills and knowledge that underpin the core themes of the course. Studies include manufacturing processes, design and CAD, materials, mathematics, engineering science, and management and marketing. You develop practical engineering IT skills and gain hands-on workshop and laboratory experience. Projects help you practise and improve professional skills such as project management, communications, problem-solving, and creativity. A teamwork project allows you to gain a deeper understanding of the role of the engineer in a global context, taking account of ethical, cultural and sustainability issues. Your year 2 studies include manufacturing systems and materials, product design and CAD, quality, marketing and operations management. You also learn about the financial aspect of industrial production. You also have the flexibility of choosing an optional engineering or business module, depending on your interests. Throughout the year there is an increased emphasis on digital manufacturing and the role of information technology in manufacturing and design. Visits to local industry provide an insight into real-world design and manufacturing. Individual and team assignments throughout the year help you develop your professional skills in areas such as team-working, project management and communications. Preparation for your industrial placement begins in year 2. Year 3 is your industrial placement year. Further details may be found in the section on placements. In addition to the continuing development of the engineering, design and management themes, there are opportunities in year 4 for you to develop your interests by selecting from a range of options that include environmental engineering and nanotechnology. An option in programming reflects the increasing importance of customer-focussed, integrated digital manufacturing systems in industry. Individual and team activities provide opportunities for you to work on industry-sourced or research-linked projects to develop specific expertise and to enhance your technical and professional skills. Details of the course modules may be found in the section on modular structure. This course is currently in the process of renewing its Professional Body Accreditation. It is possible that there will be some changes to the course as described.
