The fourth year of the course (Part IIB) carries all of the credit for the MEng degree in Engineering. This is unclassed though there are Distinction and Merit categories. NB There are no supervisions for fourth year modules.
Module choice is restricted as follows:
- students who wish to qualify in one or more Engineering Area must choose their modules accordingly;
- most courses are timetabled in sets of 2-3 modules;
- students with a First in IIA may include one graduate module (if offered and from a prescribed subset);
- some courses have limits on numbers and may run a ballot;
- students may take a maximum of 3 modules from Management/Languages.
