What proportion of the degree programme is practical?
The degree programmes offered by the department aim to provide students with the required education to become professional Chartered Engineers. As such it is important that students are exposed to a number of real engineering situations during the degree programme. This is achieved through industrial site visits, laboratory experiments and workshop practice in the early years of the degree programme and through project work in the later years of the degree programme. It should be noted, however, that the majority of the degree programme is lecture based, supported by tutorials and self study, and assessed through exams, rather than continually assessed or practical in nature.
