Integrated Engineering

The BEng (Hons) Integrated Engineering course at the University of Plymouth is an interdisciplinary engineering degree for the digital age. It will provide you with the skills and competences needed to operate effectively as a modern professional engineer across traditional boundaries. The course draws on expertise from across the school with a range of modules including civil and mechanical engineering, electrical and electronic engineering, robotics engineering, and computing and mathematics.

The enhanced benefits and key features of studying this degree, in contrast to single-discipline courses, are:

• The development of key transferable critical-thinking skills and the synthesis and integration of engineering competencies.

• The acquisition of greater interdisciplinary knowledge leading to greater engineering creativity.

• The opportunity to undertake worthwhile project work across traditional engineering discipline boundaries.

• Enhanced and consolidated understanding developed from the blending of ideas associated with different engineering disciplines so leading to better problem solving skills and increased professional flexibility.

• Improved employment opportunities on graduation to meet the future skills challenges presented by Industry 4.0.
