5

Before proceeding to Level 3 a candidate will participate in a Skills Week (including industrial visits), the arrangements being subject to the approval of the Head of Department.


6

Before proceeding to Level 3, a candidate for the Degree of MEng in Aerospace Materials (MATU28) must achieve a weighted mean grade of 60 at Level 2. A candidate who fails to meet this requirement may be permitted by the Faculty to become instead a candidate for the Degree of BEng in Aerospace Materials (MATU29).


7

The Head of Department may, on the basis of the candidate's examination performance and in accordance with procedures approved by the Faculty, require a candidate who has taken the programme of study prescribed at 1, 2 and 5 to become instead a candidate for the Degree of BEng in Aerospace Materials (MATU29).


8

A candidate must pass MAT4580 (Research Project and Literature Review) at the first attempt in order to be eligible for the award of the Degree of MEng in Aerospace Materials (MATU28). A candidate who fails to satisfy this requirement may be awarded the Degree of BEng in Aerospace Materials (MATU29).
