Students on the programme are taught how to tackle problems as individuals in team-based environments.
Team projects are a prominent feature of each year of the course, providing the opportunity to apply the multi-disciplinary knowledge being accumulated to practical real life situations.
Examples of student group projects will give you a good idea of what to expect.
With the M Eng Programmes, you can choose options in parts C & D to give a theme to your studies and you may choose to have this theme reflected in the degree title:
