Lectures
Lectures are timetabled throughout the Michaelmas and Lent terms, and the first four weeks of the Easter term.
All students take the same four 3-hour examinations at the end of their first year. These papers and the lecture courses examined in them are:
Paper 1 |
Mechanical engineering |
Mechanics (16 lectures) |
Paper 2 |
Structures & materials |
Structural mechanics (24 lectures) |
Paper 3 |
Electrical & information engineering |
Physical principles of electronics, electromagnetics (12 lectures) |
Paper 4 |
Mathematical methods |
Mathematics (39 lectures) |
Engineering applications (8 lectures)
These sessions illustrate the applications of engineering principles in the widest possible context over a broad range of technologies.
Examples papers
One examples paper is issued for about every four lectures, on Wednesdays according to the termly schedule. The material is followed up in College supervisions.
The schedule for the examples paper release can be found on the Examples paper Moodle page. Solutions (cribs) of each examples paper will be made available to students online approximately three weeks after the issue of the paper.
Coursework
Important engineering skills are developed in a wide variety of coursework exercises. The Michaelmas term includes induction activities which lay foundations for the rest of the course.
