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 and Electronic Engineering with a Year in Industry (EEEU65). A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be awarded the Degree of BEng in Electrical and Electronic Engineering with a Year in Industry (EEEU66).

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 and Electronic 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 and Electronic Engineering with a Year in Industry but without accreditation.

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 MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering Technology with a Year in Industry.
