Experience a range of Engineering disciplines
We take an interdisciplinary approach to learning and teaching, so that our students work with a range of disciplines as they would in industry. These opportunities for collaboration extend across wide-ranging subjects within the School but also across the whole of Engineering and Computer Science:
- Our Science and Engineering Foundation Year (SEFY) provides a grounding for students who need an extra year of study to progress onto our degrees, including a choice of subjects from across the Faculty of Engineering and Faculty of Science
- Our General Engineering course is for students who want to study a wide range of engineering disciplines. You will be taught by experts from across all four of our schools in the Faculty of Engineering, giving you the skills and knowledge to shape your future career path
The Diamond Building is the heart of our collaborative approach, providing teaching spaces and specialist laboratories for students from all our courses to work together on practical learning
