Students can pursue three or four year undergraduate degree programmes in these disciplines. BEng and BSc degree schemes are of three years duration. The MEng course requires an additional year of study, which is set at a Master’s level. The normal entry is to Level 1, but students who do not possess relevant qualifications for direct admission to Level 1 may pursue a Foundation Year at Level 0.
Many of the courses offer the opportunity for a year in industry, which can be undertaken in the UK or overseas. In recent years, students have used this option to work or study overseas in Europe, America and Australia. A number of the BEng degree schemes offer students the opportunity of pursuing modules in a modern language coupled with a further year of study at a European university, to be pursued before the final year of study.
