Introduction

Engineering is fundamental to the economic and social prosperity of the UK. It is the profession responsible for the creation of all material objects and systems necessary for modern life from concept to customer to decommissioning. Engineering is fundamental to the creation and sustainability of the environment itself. Your studies at Bradford will be a foundation for life aimed at developing an understanding of technical principles and competence in their application and a wide range of personal and professional skills. An excellent way to develop these skills is to undertake an industrial placement as an integral part of your degree studies. Upon graduation you will have the capacity for professional growth, which may include seeking Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. The BEng (Hons) will meet, in part, the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer and Students will need to complete an approved format of further learning pursuant to the requirements of UK-SPEC. To achieve CEng status you will also need to complete a period of postgraduate professional development in industry. In addition, the ability of an engineer to think clearly and logically is widely appreciated by many other professions and your studies may well be a stepping-stone to an alternative career in financial services, teaching, law, etc – a real foundation for life.

The School places emphasis on both teaching and research. We have particular research strengths in automotive engineering (especially component design and manufacturing quality); materials engineering (including the creation of complex components from powders, composites, and polymers); computer modelling and design (creation, virtual testing, and prototyping). We conduct this research jointly with many companies including Ford, Jaguar Land Rover and this work shapes and informs our undergraduate programmes.

Teaching and Assessment Strategies

The teaching and assessment strategy takes into consideration the learning outcomes, progression through the levels of study, the nature of the subject and the student intake, and the need for you to take greater responsibility for your own learning as you progress through the course. The approaches adopted are outlined below:

Teaching and learning methods implemented to engage you in developing your knowledge and understanding of the course include formal lectures (including those from Visiting Lecturers), case studies, tutorial exercises, practical demonstrations, directed learning and individual and team-based project work. The method of assessment is by written examination and both analytical and experimental coursework.

The methods implemented in developing your intellectual skills include engaging with you during tutorial exercises, case studies, practical demonstration and supervised research or project work. The methods of assessment of intellectual skills are implicit in the written examinations, analytical and experimental coursework and more particularly in your Final Year Project work.

The methods implemented in developing your practical skills include demonstrations and practical sessions linked with the taught modules. You will also design and operate equipment and/or procedures and use control and measuring instruments under supervision during your project work. The methods of assessment of practical skills include feedback on laboratory work linked with the taught modules. Also a large part of the mark of the Project report will be attributed to the Experimental Method and Equipment and the Presentation & Discussion of Results.

The methods implemented in developing your transferable skills are implicit in the programme. The University of Bradford is well known for attracting students from a wide variety of background, experiences and countries. This and the learning facilities available to all students provide the conditions for students to develop and manage their learning. The University of Bradford modus operandi, Making Knowledge Work, is imbedded in the philosophy of this course, The School of Engineering, Design and Technology is well equipped with

Students are encouraged to access this support at an early stage and to use the extensive resources on the web site www.careers.brad.ac.uk.

Discussing options with specialist advisers helps to clarify plans through exploring options and refining skills of job-hunting. In most of programmes there is direct input by Career Development Advisers into the curriculum or through specially arranged workshops. These may take place as early as year 1, or may be achieved through a customised Career and Personal Development module in year 2 or 3 which is developed in close cooperation with the academic department. An annual First Destination Survey leads to compilation of a report on the outcomes of all programmes and to the development of an annually updated Traffic Light Analysis of Employability which is used as a performance indicator.

The specific provision on this programme is the opportunity to undertake a placement year between stages 2 and 3. We strongly encourage you make use of this opportunity. The School has many contacts with relevant organisations and arranges for interviews with those in which you have an interest. It is then your task to impress them sufficiently to gain an offer of employment. The work undertaken during the placement is monitored by the University and counts towards the industrial training requirements of the IMechE. Successful completion of the placement (50%) is recognised by the award of a Diploma of Industrial Studies.
