About this course
The BEng(Hons) Engineering Technology program is designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and practical experience necessary to excel in the dynamic field of engineering. Over three trimesters, students will engage in a comprehensive curriculum comprising modules carefully tailored to meet the evolving demands of the engineering industry, particularly within the Humber region. It is delivered part time over 18th months, you will complete 4 modules in your first year through trimester 1 and 2, returning for the third and final trimester to complete the Engineering Project.
The BEng (Hons) Engineering Technology (Top-up) helps you to develop the knowledge gathered in your L5 programme in Engineering, getting you up to the standard that employers are demanding when selecting candidates for professional engineering management roles in the region and beyond.
Our Top-up programme teaches management techniques, research and project management skills, operations management and much more. As part of the course, you’ll be working on a live brief in association with a leading firm in the engineering industry, giving you first-hand experience of problem solving in a real work environment.
Engineering graduates are in high demand and professional opportunities exist in many different fields such as construction, textiles, defence, renewable energy, food, aerospace, medicine, radio, TV and motor sport. There are also many kinds of engineering disciplines including civil, structural, mechanical, electronic and materials engineering and the type of work can vary from research and design to consulting and manufacturing.
The PT programme is six hours of contact time per week, you are also expected to complete self-directed study on a weekly basis to extend your subject knowledge.
Trimester 1 introduces students to fundamental concepts in Advanced Engineering Materials and Project Management, providing a solid foundation for further exploration. In Trimester 2, students delve into Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Industrial Control Systems (ICS), gaining expertise in essential technologies shaping modern engineering practices. The culmination of the program in Trimester 3 is the Engineering Project module, where students apply their learning to real-world challenges, demonstrating their ability to innovate and solve complex engineering problems.
These modules have been developed to meet the Level 6 general engineering requirements, ensuring graduates are well-prepared for successful careers in engineering technology.
Modules
Advanced Engineering Materials (AEM): 20 credits
Project Management (PM): 20 credits
Computer Aided Design (CAD): 20 credits
Industrial Control Systems (ICS): 20 credits
Engineering Project: 40 credits
Assessment methods
The assessment approach is varied, tailored to different learning and teaching methodologies, aimed at challenging students in their learning and its application in their professional contexts. Both formative and summative activities are employed, aligning with the development of the curriculum and local processes.
To foster student awareness and self-directed goal planning, feedback from assignments, along with optional tutorials, will be utilized. This process aims to enhance students' self-awareness in responding to assessments and refining their approaches. Individual requirements and accommodations are accommodated during initial discussions at the module's commencement. Any identified inclusion needs from admissions inform the overall assessment strategy, with formal adjustments made as necessary.
Formative assessment aids in completing assignments successfully, facilitating feedback from peers and structured support from tutors. These formative opportunities encourage dialogue, allowing for alternative ideas and flexibility to enhance the final assessment.
Progression through the programme, introduces additional competencies at each level. The delivery plan for each module involves discussions with students to incorporate the intended competencies, allowing multiple opportunities for assessment throughout the programme. Assessment instruments transition from examinations to written requirements to practical and project-based assessments with digital components, reflecting the evolving academic style and professional demands. This approach, coupled with student feedback, enhances their progress and aligns with the planned application of competencies at each stage of their academic journey.
