Aims

The double degree course has been designed to provide graduates with:

  • A strong foundation in both the theoretical and the practical aspects of engineering, particularly those relevant to the systematic development of electro-mechanical systems
  • An awareness of social, economic, cultural and environmental aspects of electrical and electronic, and mechanical engineering
  • An ability to critically analyse and evaluate information and solve problems
  • An understanding of professional and ethical responsibilities and a commitment to them
  • Well developed written and oral communication skills
  • Structured engineering work experience
  • The ability to work and interact professionally as an individual and as a member of multi-disciplinary teams
  • An ability to undertake a substantial research-oriented project
  • An understanding of the need to undertake lifelong learning and the capacity to do so
  • Preparation for future management roles as professional engineers

The double degree course provides the foundations that will underpin ongoing professional development, preparing graduates for further study or for a career in an engineering related field or in other areas where the range of skills and knowledge acquired is needed or desirable.
