About this course

Why choose this course?

This course is ideal if you would like to join one of our engineering honours degrees but need a preparatory period of study. It provides an alternative entry route if you do not have our standard entry requirements but have the ability to succeed at degree-level study.

Once you have completed this course, you can join a BEng(Hons)/BSc(Hons) engineering degree of your choice, dependent on satisfactory grades.

What will you study?

You will study introductory modules in applied mathematics, engineering mechanics and science required for later years of your engineering degree. You will begin to learn to conduct and analyse engineering experimental work and to use relevant computing software. You will also be introduced to fundamental communication and study skills.

Each module is designed to provide you with the opportunity to develop your knowledge and specific transferable skills appropriate for entry to Year 1 of your chosen engineering degree course.

NB: For student funding purposes, this is not a separate, standalone course, but is designed to form an integral part of a BEng(Hons) degree or BSc(Hons) degree.
