4C

A student will be responsible for securing a suitable placement in order to take CPE31004 Year with Employment Experience. The appropriateness of the placement will be determined by the Chemical and Biological Engineering Director of Learning and Teaching. A student who fails to obtain a suitable placement will instead be required to become a student for the Degree of MEng Chemical Engineering (CPEU03).  A student will take CPE31004 Year with Employment Experience before proceeding to Level 5.


4D

A student will normally spend the Year with Employment Experience between the third and fourth year of the degree programme. However, with the permission of the Head of Department, the student may spend the Year with Employment Experience between the second and third year of the degree programme.


4E

CPE31004 requires that a student will spend a minimum of 38 weeks working in an industrial establishment, the arrangements being subject to the approval of the Chemical and Biological Engineering Director of Learning and Teaching. The Year with Employment Experience will be assessed on a written report and a post-placement presentation. No grades will be awarded for the Year with Employment Experience which will be assessed on a pass/fail basis. A student who fails to satisfy these requirements may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a student for the Degree of MEng Chemical Engineering (CPEU03).
