  • BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering incl with placement

Teaching and assessment

Learning involves lectures, tutorials, laboratory classes and group design exercises.

You will learn from a combination of theoretical, experimental and computational study. Our laboratories feature chip production facilities and electrical power equipment.

Grades obtained in each year count towards the final degree classification, with increasing weight given to the later years.

Coursework assessments vary from paper assignments to the assessment of practical skills. Assessment components may involve more than one assessment task, and most modules will have a examination component as well as a coursework component, with an approximate 50:50 split over the programme lifetime.

Feedback will normally be provided within three weeks of the submission deadline or assessment date. For end-of-module examinations feedback will normally be provided within four weeks, while feedback for final year projects or dissertations, may be longer.

Assessment methods

Assessment is weighted towards coursework, and coursework assignments are submitted weekly. Coursework is usually worth between 60 and 75 per cent of the overall module, and the examination worth 25 per cent, although this varies across modules.

Percentage of the course assessed by coursework

The balance of assessment by coursework (assessed essays and assignments) unseen examinations and a final year project will to some extent depend on the optional modules you choose.

The approximate percentage of the course assessment, based on 2019/20 entry is as follows:

Assessment

Year 0
Written examination: 100%
Coursework: 0%
Year 2
Written examination: 50%
Coursework: 50%
Year 1
Written examination: 61%
Coursework: 39%
Year 3
Written examination: 47%
Practical: 5%
Coursework: 48%

Overall workload

Overall the BEng honours programme hours are 3600.

Each academic year is delivered over 22 contact weeks, four examination weeks, four reflective learning (private study) weeks and eight vacation weeks (which may be used for private study).

A BEng Honours Programme therefore requires a commitment of 40 study hours per week during the academic year.

Approximate study time based on 2019/20 entry is as follows:

Our team of placement specialists, the Professional Liaison Unit, has extensive experience in helping students to secure professional experience across a range of industries. The team also has longstanding relationships with an impressive and diverse range of companies spanning both large and small organisations.

You can undertake a summer internship at the end of each academic year or opt to spend a year on an industry placement at the end of your second year.

Placements are paid, and are a fantastic way to gain professional experience in a relevant field as part of your degree. Undertaking a placement year could also count towards the experience requirement for a professional engineering qualification.

Placements are highly encouraged at City. Students that complete a placement year benefit from gaining professional experience working on real-life projects and are also more likely to achieve higher grades, secure a graduate-level job and earn a higher salary.

In recent years Electrical and Electronic Engineering students have been able to obtain placements at leading companies within their chosen field such as:

  • TfL
  • Nissan
  • Gamma
  • G2 Energy
  • Interserve
  • AECOM
  • Network Rail.
