A mapping with the UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence, UK-SPEC, published by the Engineering Council UK, ECUK, was employed to derive the learning outcomes for the programme.
LEARNING AND TEACHING
Learning and teaching methods This section sets out the primary learning and teaching methods, including total learning hours and any specific requirements in terms of practical/ clinical-based learning. The indicative list of learning and teaching methods includes information on the proportion of the course delivered by each method and details where a particular method relates to a particular element of the course.
The information included in this section complements that found in the Key Information Set (KIS), with the programme specification providing further information about the learning and teaching methods used on the course. The learning and teaching strategy is to maintain motivation, engagement and performance through the integration of theory and practice and through continued reference to applications.
In addition to the normal lectures and tutorials, traditional demonstrations and laboratory exercises will also be used but much of the strategy will be implemented through design, build, test exercises; the complexity, or depth, of design freedom being increased as the student progresses through the course.
For example, students are encouraged to behave as professional engineers from the first day. The Engineering Applications module in Stage 2, EO122, is dedicated solely to practical project work, encouraging the student to develop their engineering skills in terms of analysis of a problem, drawing up a specification for a design, synthesis (leading to an engineering design), build, test, recording progress using logbooks and communicating via written and oral forms. Team work will be integral to some parts of the course with team sizes varying depending on the learning outcomes.
Other modules such as EO127 and EO128 will contain “hands-on” (i.e. laboratory or computer based) work as a means to provide a learning environment where students learn by doing in the laboratories, as opposed to spending much of their time in lecture rooms. Additionally, EO128 has also a significant design and build project incorporated within the module.
In Stage 3, this philosophy is extended so that the Engineering Application aspects are totally integrated within three modules (EO226, EO229 and EO230). It is envisaged that the students will apply what they have learnt into application oriented projects.
In the final year (Stage 4), the student brings together their knowledge, expertise and skills acquired in the previous years in the form of a 40 CATS project module, where a student is responsible for the specification, research, design, implementation, test and review of a project from start to finish. Other final year specialized modules will include practical activities, thus continuing the theme of learning by application.
Nominal contact time for 10 CATS points in Stages 2 and 3 is 1.5 hours per week over 26 weeks with the expectation that students will carry out independent learning for an additional 1.5 to 2 hours per week. Hence the normal contact time per week would be 18 hours with the expectation that the student’s total commitment to the course would be approximately 35 to 40 hours per week.
All undergraduates undertake project work, culminating in the Stage 4 Project. Projects may take different forms such as design, build, test, analysis and original investigation. All will involve independent literature studies. Many of the projects are connected with research interests of supervising staff, and some result from industrial liaison and Knowledge Transfer Partnerships. The Stage 4 project is always carried out on an individual basis and will be pertinent to the student’s study pathway. In order to develop team working skills other projects and assignments are often carried out in groups.
In Stage 4, due to the increased maturity and focus of the students, contact time for a nominal 10 CATS points is reduced to 1 hour per week and independent study increases to 2 to 2.5 hours per week. Studentcentral is used to provide a framework for guiding students in their independent learning periods.

ASSESSMENT
Assessment methods This section sets out the summative assessment methods on the course and includes details on where to find further information on the criteria used in assessing coursework. It also provides an assessment matrix which reflects the variety of modes of assessment, and the volume of assessment in the course.
The information included in this section complements that found in the Key Information Set (KIS), with the programme specification providing further information about how the course is assessed. The use of long modules allows for better assessment planning with less bunching at the end of semester one and potentially less assessments in total. Studentcentral is an increasingly important part of the formative feedback strategy of the course with some
limited application to summative assessment. Examinations are normally closed book and of three hours duration for 20 CATS modules assessed principally by examination. For those modules where coursework is used to assess a significant number of the learning outcomes the examination length is two hours. A mapping of the learning outcomes of the programme to the module learning outcomes is shown in the table at the end of the programme specification in Appendix B. The following table maps the learning outcomes to the modules and assessments methods used.

Course-specific Additional support, specifically where courses have non- traditional patterns of delivery (e.g. distance learning and work-based learning) include:
In addition, students on this course benefit from: Research expertise and industrial links of the School through the Centre for Automotive Engineering (CAE) and the Vetronics Research Centre (Vehicle Electronics). The School’s extensive laboratory facilities including the CAE’s Sir Harry Ricardo Laboratories and the Flight Simulator. Industrially relevant projects and assignments through the School’s IAB, KTP
work and other industrial collaborations. Personal tutor for advice and
guidance Specialist engineering software. Research Informed Teaching
The experience of staff running KTP projects feedback into the teaching and final year projects. This sometimes leads to industrially sponsored projects. Modules at each stage of the course are shared across the School’s engineering disciplines. It is anticipated that the recent addition of the Vetronics Research Centre, VRC, to the School (the only Academic Centre of Excellence in the UK conducting research and training in the subject area of Vehicle Electronics) will provide opportunities to support a range of activities
in these modules in addition to providing inspiration for individual projects in Stage 4.
Education for Sustainable Development
Sustainability is a core element of engineering practice. This can be seen across a range of disciplines from the selection of a manufacturing process (energy cost and environmental impact) to the design of a road vehicle power train (response to legislation and energy resources). As such sustainable development has always been an implicit element in many modules.
Students are introduced to concepts of sustainability and ethics throughout the course. Students research into Ethics and Sustainability issues in their chosen area of engineering in the first year (XE121 Engineering Concepts). The work is delivered as a report as well as a short presentation. In the second year in XE221 Engineering Design, Innovation & Management , a week dedicated just to this module will be set aside for students to focus on how to solve problems relating to sustainability and global issues. Topics may include on how to solve a particular problem in a village in South India. In the final year (Stage 4) XE324 Product Innovation and Management students will be given problems in relating to globalisation issues.
The course aims to educate students for sustainable development by studying science and developing scientific skills, research skills and critical thinking.
PART 3: COURSE SPECIFIC REGULATIONS
COURSE STRUCTURE
This section includes an outline of the structure of the programme, including stages of study and progression points. Course Leaders may choose to include a structure diagram here.
Page 8 of 16
This programme is designed to provide a route to membership of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) as well as to registration as Chartered Engineer (CEng) and European Engineer (EurIng). The full programme structure is illustrated in Appendix A.
The programme is divided into four Stages, with Stage 1 at Education Level 0. The course can only be entered at Stage 1 (there is a separate BEng course that permits entry to other stages). Stage 1 provides a set of modules in science, mathematics and study skills that meet the requirements for study on level 4 engineering courses.
BEng (Hons)
The full-time BEng (Hons) course is structured in the conventional way over three years with intakes entering at the beginning of Stage 2.
The normal output award is a BEng honours degree. As detailed in GEAR, students may leave the course with exit awards (Appendix A) at any stage of the course.
At the end of Stage 3 students may choose to take an industrial placement with companies in the UK.
Stages 3 and 4 include opportunities within particular modules to develop management skills – this is essential for the modern professional engineer. A range of final-year modules caters for special interests, and the individual technical project allows further specialisation.
MEng
Students who demonstrate the appropriate level of academic and personal qualities at the end of Stage 3
may proceed onto a further two years of study to obtain a MEng degree. The School’s long experience in
this respect has found that an aggregate score of 60% or more at the end of year two is appropriate,
normally. Students qualifying in this respect are counselled as to how well their personal qualities will
match the demands of the enhanced and extended MEng program. General Structure
All modules are at least 10 CATS or more. The course team has devised a scheme with a mix of module sizes in order to integrate the discipline areas more cohesively, link practice to theory better and provide delivery and assessment flexibility within the modules.
Part-time study
Part-time students take exactly the same diet of modules as the full time students but will complete them over a longer period. They will normally be admitted to Stage 3 and will complete the Level 5 and 6 modules at half the rate of the full-time students. Part-time students can complete their final project (XE336) in their place of employment provided suitable infrastructure is in place.
The five main areas of competence defined in the UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence, UK-SPEC, published by the Engineering Council UK, ECUK, have been used to inform the content and curriculum of the programme.
These areas of competence are as follows: 1. Use of general and specialist engineering knowledge and understanding 2. Application of appropriate theoretical and practical methods 3. Technical and commercial leadership and management 4. Effective interpersonal and communication skills 5. Commitment to professional standards and recognition of obligations to society and environment.
