- Civil and Environmental Engineering Progression to Year 5 Rules -
Due to the requirements of the professional accrediting body for Civil and Environmental Engineering, progression to Year 5 requires passes in at least 100 credit points worth of courses AND an overall average of 40% or more for the 120 credits of study taken in the relevant honours year.

- Resits for Professional Purposes Year 4 -
Students NOT achieving full passes in 100 credits will be required to take 'Resits for Professional Purposes' (RPPs) in the courses where they obtained less than 40%.

Progression will then only be permitted once the equivalent of full passes in at least 100 credits of courses has been achieved, however the mark obtained at the first attempt will be used to calculate the final year average and degree award.

- Civil and Environmental Engineering Graduation Rules -
Due to the requirements of the professional accrediting body for Civil and Environmental Engineering, graduation requires passes in at least 100 credit points worth of courses AND an overall average of 40% or more for the 120 credits of study taken in the relevant honours year.

A pass is also required in the following compulsory course: CIVE11031 MEng Thesis (Discipline of Civil & Environmental Engineering)

- Resits for Professional Purposes Year 5 -
Students NOT achieving a full pass in the requisite course listed above and NOT achieving passes in at least 100 credit points worth of courses AND an overall average of 40% or more for the 120 credits of study taken in the relevant honours year, will be required to take 'Resits for Professional Purposes' (RPPs) in the courses where they obtained less than 40%.

Graduation will only be permitted once they have achieved the equivalent of full passes in the course listed above AS WELL AS at least 100 credits of courses, however the mark obtained at the first attempt will be used to calculate the final year average and degree award.
