Engineering Management (with Foundation Year)

First, we prepare you for your degree during the Foundation year, bringing you up to speed with academic skills and a firm grounding in the subject. Then you can go on to do the full undergraduate degree.

This course will enable you to deepen your knowledge and understanding in core engineering-related disciplines. Students will also acquire research and business skills demanded by industry and the professional accrediting bodies, such as IMechE, IET, iED (Institution of Engineering Designers) and CSD (Chartered Society of Designers).

Alongside traditional engineering modules, the course makes use of the expertise the University has in delivering management related modules. This ensures students are prepared for the increasing demands in the industry for engineers with management skills. On completion of the course, students will be qualified to take leading roles in technical and project management positions.

This is a unique course that will give you the opportunity to develop specialised skills, knowledge and the intellectual ability to work as an engineer, designer or researcher in your preferred field.

The BEng in Engineering enables students to identify the route they would like to follow and gain the appropriate qualification to pursue it. Students can continue their studies through courses in MEng in Engineering Design, Engineering Management or General Engineering.
