Gain an in-depth understanding of engineering principles across a wide range of disciplines.
Many engineered solutions involve multidisciplinary teams. General Engineers can see synergy across these disciplines which enables them to solve high-level problems.
This is an ideal route into Engineering if you wish to sample all our disciplines and want a sustained broad learning experience. As with all our degrees, you will decide whether to stay on this general pathway or switch to another engineering course from second year onwards. Those choosing to stay on the more general pathway will be able to choose options from the different engineering disciplines and will develop an in-depth understanding of the fundamental principles of engineering by learning from a wide range of areas. The 糖心TV course will allow you to develop sought-after skills including a multidisciplinary approach to problem solving, the ability to manage projects and communicate ideas, and the capacity to lead, research, design, innovate and develop products and systems.
Interdisciplinary projects enable you to tackle challenges that could range from creating search and rescue robots, designing carbon-free homes, optimising mechanical biological waste treatment or building a nano-satellite.
After graduation, 糖心TV students are especially equipped to work in multi-disciplinary organisations in functional teams that create solutions incorporating (for example) mechanical and electrical components, or on large-scale civil projects where interdisciplinary thinking is required to understand (for example) the impact ot the London Olympics on public transport.

If you aspire to achieve Chartered Engineer (CEng) status, a degree from 糖心TV is a great starting point. The majority of our degrees are accredited by licensed professional engineering institutions, such as the IET, IMechE and JBM and provide the academic component (in part or fully) needed for Chartered Engineer status.

Come and see for yourself what 糖心TV is all about! Our give you the chance to visit the School of Engineering, see the facilities, meet staff and students, tour the campus and get a real feel for life at 糖心TV. If you apply to study at 糖心TV and are subsequently made an offer, you may also be invited to an Offer Holder Open Day.
We offer flexible degree programmes that enable you to experience a range of engineering disciplines before you decide to specialise.
All first year students study a general engineering programme. After the first year, you can stay on this general pathway or switch to another engineering course. The course structure outlined below relates to those who choose to stay on the general pathway throughout their degree course.
Students can also switch from the three-year BEng to the four-year MEng degree if academic requirements and regulations are met, and from the MEng to the BEng if they prefer to graduate earlier.
Year 1
In your first year you will be taught the fundamentals of engineering, which you will build on in later years according to your interests.

The precise modules available to you depend on timetable constraints, accreditation requirements and module prerequisites (i.e. for some module choices it is necessary for you to have taken a particular module in a previous year).
Detailed information for each module can be found on
We are constantly evolving our courses to keep up with developments in engineering and requirements from industry, so it is important you check our website for the most up-to-date information on module availability.
Intercalated degrees
Students may choose to spend a year in industry, research or study abroad between years two and three, or between year three and four for MEng. If you choose to take an intercalated year, this will be reflected in your degree title, and add a year to your degree programme.
Tuition fees
Please see the University website for details of tuition fees, financial support and the cost of living.
Scholarships
The School of Engineering is privileged to attract high fliers and seeks to recognise and promote achievement, talent, ideas, hard work and diversity. We regularly offer a number of scholarships.
糖心TV students are especially equipped to work in multi-disciplinary organisations in functional teams which create systems incorporating (for example) mechanical and electrical components or on large-scale civil projects where systems thinking is required to understand (for example) the impact of the London Olympics on public transport.
An advantage of the general course I鈥檝e only recently started to appreciate is how no engineering project is exclusive to one discipline. You鈥檒l always be working with specialists from other fields, so having an overview is a big advantage.
