Download course specification:

  • Engineering (BEng)

Teaching and assessment

The course is delivered through lectures, tutorials, group design exercises, laboratory classes and programming workshops. Learning involves a combination of theoretical, experimental and computational study. Our approach is to encourage critical thinking and foster curiosity through both teamwork and independent study.

The design exercises provide the opportunity for you to be engaged in cross-disciplinary challenges, preparing the way for tackling larger problems which span traditional engineering boundaries.

Assessment methods

Assessment is by coursework and examinations. Group learning and communication skills are addressed through design studies and presentations. Practical and technical skills are assessed through laboratory work, data analysis and project reports.

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

Percentage of the course assessed by coursework

The balance of assessment by examination, practical examination and assessment by coursework 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 1
Written examination: 61%
