MENG Electrical Engineering with a Year in Industry (EEEU50) IS

2023 - 2024

Year 4

Core These are a compulsory part of your degree: you cannot change them. units (120 credits)

A student will take

Full academic year
EEE394	Year In Industry	ACAD YR	120 credits

A student will be responsible for securing a suitable industrial placement in order to take EEE394. The placement will be subject to the approval of the Head of Department. A student who fails to obtain a suitable placement will instead be required to become a student for the Degree of MEng in Electrical Engineering (EEEU02).

EEE394 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 Head of Department. A student who fails to satisfy these requirements may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a student for the Degree of MEng in Electrical Engineering (EEEU02).

A student will normally spend the Year in Industry 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 in Industry between the second and third year of the degree programme.

For all students:

A student must pass EEE481 (Group Project) at the first attempt in order to be eligible for the award of the Degree of MEng Electrical Engineering with a Year in Industry. A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be awarded the Degree of BEng in Electrical Engineering with a Year in Industry (EEEU55).

For students commencing Year 1 of a programme of study in or after September 2022:

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 a MEng Electrical Engineering Technology with a Year in Industry.

For students commencing Year 1 of a programme of study in or after September 2017 and before September 2022:

A student must pass a minimum of 100 credits at Level 4 in order to be recommended for the award of the degree of MEng Electrical Engineering with a Year in Industry with accreditation (Full CEng) by the IET. A student who fails to gain 100 credits at Level 4, but otherwise satisfies the General Regulations, will be recommended for the award of the degree of MEng Electrical Engineering with a Year in Industry but without accreditation.
