A candidate must pass MAT4356 (Research Project and Literature Review) at the first attempt in order to be eligible for the award of the Degree of MEng in Materials Science and Engineering (Modem Language). A student who fails to satisfy this requirement may be awarded the Degree of BEng in Materials Science and Engineering (MATU05).

The Head of Department may, on the basis of a student's examination performance and in accordance with procedures approved by the Faculty, require a student who has taken the programme of study prescribed at 1 and 2 to become instead a student for the Degree of BEng in Materials Science and Engineering (MATU05).

The Industrial Placement will normally be undertaken in a country appropriate to the language taken at Levels 1, 2 and 4.

The Modern Languages Teaching Centre will assist the student in the selection of appropriate language units based on prior knowledge, language chosen and programme taken.
