Modules
If you wish to pursue further learning for Chartered Engineer or Chartered Energy Manager accreditation, you must take module EPM403 (Risk Management) among your elective options.
You are normally required to complete all the taught modules successfully before progressing to the dissertation.
Elective modules run subject to demand. In rare cases, one or two elective modules may not run due to low interest.
The modules run from October to April, and in the remaining time, you will concentrate on your dissertation, which forms a significant part of the programme.
If you wish to pursue further learning for Chartered Engineer accreditation, you must take module EPM799 as your dissertation option.
Full-time
A 12-month full-time option during which you attend all the taught modules during terms 1 and 2, and complete your Project.
Part-time
A 27-month part-time option during which you attend half the modules in a first 12-month period, followed by the other half the next year.
Students are expected to complete all the modules in this two-year period (some flexibility to the duration may be permitted).
The teaching periods are structured to deliver modules in a sequence which permits engagement by part-time students alongside full-time students.
The dissertation is undertaken by part-time students in the second year.
