Course content

You'll specialise in control and instrumentation, and develop the skills and knowledge you'll need to apply for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng) when you graduate.

Chartered Engineers use a range of fundamental scientific principles to:

• research, develop and apply new technologies
• develop and promote advanced designs and design methods
• introduce new and more efficient production techniques
• initiate marketing and construction concepts
• pioneer new engineering services and management methods.

This course is flexible, so you'll have lots of choice in the specialist subject modules you take and the ways you learn. So you'll study some modules through lectures and tutorials, some online and others in your workplace. You'll study both on your own and as part of a group. Your project work will also give you vital experience of working in teams.
