Undergraduate courses
Our courses focus on three broad themes:
| Theme | Courses | UCAS codes |
|---|---|---|
| The study of the drivers of the technology of the future – Materials and their properties, manufacture, processing and applications. | MEng/BEng Aerospace Materials | H403/H401 |
| MEng/BEng Materials Science and Engineering | J500/JH51 | |
| MEng/BEng Materials Science and Engineering (Biomaterials) | JH5P/JH56 | |
| NEW MEng Materials Science with Nuclear Engineering NEW | F2H8 | |
| MEng Materials Science and Engineering (Modern Language) | J5R9 | |
| MEng/BEng Materials Science and Engineering (Industrial Management) | FH21/FHF1 | |
| MEng Metallurgy | J200 | |
| If you are interested in studying any of our courses, but lack the appropriate science background, you may be suitable for our Foundation Year programme. | MEng Materials Science and Engineering with a Foundation Year | J501 |
You can choose to study most of our courses over three or four years, leading to either a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) or a Master of Engineering (MEng) qualification.
The Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3) has accredited our Materials programmes.
If you complete any of our BEng courses with excellent marks, you will have the option to specialise in your particular area of interest – and to gain two degrees in four years! – by progressing directly on to a fully-funded study place on one of our taught postgraduate (MSc) programmes.

Entry requirements
We have increased our entry requirements for courses starting in September 2012. These changes are reflected in the University online and printed prospectus, and our departmental brochure.
