A student must have been awarded a minimum of 110 credits to proceed to Level 4. A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be permitted by the Faculty to be awarded the Degree of BEng in Architectural Engineering (CIVU24) but will be ineligible for the award of that Degree with Honours.

Year 4


units (120 credits)
4A
A student will take

Full academic year
CIV395  Year in Industry ACAD YR 120 credits

4B

A student will take CIV395 Year in Industry before proceeding to Year 5. A student will be responsible for securing a suitable industrial placement in order to take CIV395 Year in Industry. The appropriateness of the placement will be determined by the department's Year in Industry Tutor. A student who fails to obtain a suitable placement will instead be required to become a student for the Degree of MEng Architectural Engineering Design (CIVU21).


4C

CIV395 requires that a student will spend a minimum of 38 weeks working in industrial establishment, the arrangements being subject to the approval of the department's Year in Industry Tutor. A student who fails to satisfy these requirements may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a student for the Degree of MEng Architectural Engineering Design (CIVU21).

6

A student must pass CIV4008 (Individual Research Project) at the first attempt in order to be eligible for the award of the Degree in MEng in Architectural Engineering (CIVU21). A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be awarded the degree of BEng in Architectural Engineering (CIVU24) but will be ineligible for the award of that Degree with Honours.


7

A student who has been awarded credit in compensation of failed units in Years 2, 3 and 5 will be permitted an additional resit attempt in the compensated credits. An additional resit attempt can only be granted where the student has met the requirements for progression (or completion) under the General Regulations for First Degrees.

A student who has been awarded credit in compensation of failed units in Years 2, 3 and 5, where the grade achieved is more than 10% below the pass grade in those failed units, may not be recommended for a degree award that is accredited under Engineering Council rules.

A student who has been awarded more than 30 credits in compensation of failed units across Years 1, 2, 3 and 5, may not be recommended for a degree award that is accredited under Engineering Council rules.

Where a student has met the requirements for the award of a degree under the General Regulations for First Degrees but not the requirements for the award of a degree accredited under Engineering Council rules, they may be recommended for the award of MEng Civil Engineering Technology with an Industrial Placement Year.
