CPE31004	Year with Employment Experience	ACAD YR	0 credits

A student must normally achieve a weighted mean grade of 54.5 or above at Level 1 and Level 2 in order to proceed to the Year with Employment Experience, progression being at the discretion of the Board of Examiners. A student who fails to progress may be permitted to become instead a student for the Degree of BEng Chemical Engineering (CPEU02).

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 BEng Chemical Engineering (CPEU02). A student will take CPE31004 Year with Employment Experience before proceeding to Level 4.

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 BEng Chemical Engineering (CPEU02).
