Programme structure and features |
This programmes fits within the general structure of the University’s Curriculum Framework. Courses and Progression Students take courses totalling 120 credit points in each year of the programme. The programme is full time for 4 years (BEng) or 5 years (MEng). The degree regulations and programme of study, along with the degree programme table for all Engineering degrees can be found at: http://www.drps.ed.ac.uk Year 1 First year comprises two courses in each of Mathematics and Engineering plus two optional courses. All courses are 20 credits. Engineering Principles 1 and Engineering Design 1 provide an interdisciplinary introduction to engineering practice using a mixture of group and individual activities. This is complemented by courses in Engineering Mathematics that have a particular focus on developing knowledge and understanding of mathematics applied to engineering problems. Progression: The pass mark in all subjects is 40% for both written examination and coursework components. Progression into 2nd year normally requires passes in Engineering and Mathematics courses. Students may be permitted to progress carrying up to 40 points, but resits will be required so that all Year 1 credits are passed before a student progresses to senior honours. Year 2 On successful completion of Year 1, students will transfer to their chosen degree programme. A full list of degree programmes is available at: http://www.drps.ed.ac.uk |
