For all students:

A student must pass the Individual Project (GEE302) at the first attempt or score over 40 in the advanced individual project (GEE401), in order to be eligible for the award of the Degree of BEng General Engineering with a Year in Industry (Chemical) (GEEU33) with accreditation. A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be permitted by the Faculty to be awarded an unaccredited Degree of BEng Engineering (GEEU46).

For students commencing Year 1 of a programme of study before September 2022:

A student must pass a minimum of 100 credits at Level 3 in order to be awarded the degree of BEng General Engineering with a Year in Industry with accreditation. A student who passes a minimum of 90 but fewer than 100 credits at Level 3 will, in accordance with the General Regulations, be awarded the degree of BEng Engineering, 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 and 4 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 and 4, 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 and 4, may not be recommended for a degree award that is accredited under Engineering Council rules. A student who failed to pass one or more of the modules from the list below may not be recommended for a degree award that is accredited under Engineering Council rules: GEE101, GEE201, GEE302, MGT388, FCE1001, FCE2001. 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 GEEU46 BEng Engineering Technology.
