PART A: PROGRAMME OVERVIEW, AIMS and LEARNING OUTCOMES
1. (Programme) Overview (c. 400 words) The curriculum is designed for students seeking an engineering education closely aligned to engineering practice. Technical knowledge, engineering practice, business awareness and sustainability are integrated through projects and revisited to produce confident graduates able to apply their skills to novel situations and create engineering solutions that benefit society. Professional development is placed at the heart of the curriculum. From day one, students are taken on a journey from student engineer to graduate engineer, preparing them for life as an engineering professional. Students will identify, develop and demonstrate competencies expected of a professional engineer in the workplace. Projects and activities, embedded throughout the curriculum, are designed to develop the engineering habits of mind such as: Problem-finding, Problem-solving, Visualising, Systems Thinking, Improving, and Adapting. Foundation principles of engineering science, skills and practice are integrated throughout all years of study. Mechanical engineers are employed throughout the engineering sector in the creation, maintenance and improvement of engineering operations. Consequently mechanical engineering graduates need to be able to integrate engineering knowledge skills from across engineering and be able to be an effective member of a multidisciplinary team. Mechanical engineering topics of engineering analysis, design, structures, stress analysis, dynamics, materials, thermofluids, systems and manufacturing are developed throughout the core and taken to an advanced level in the optional modules. Sufficient electrical and electronic content has been included in the core
PART A: PROGRAMME OVERVIEW, AIMS and LEARNING OUTCOMES
Programme (Learning) Outcomes (POs) No. PO Text PO apply established and novel mechanical analysis concepts to solve engineering problems involving design, operations and manufacture that arise across mechanical engineering applications. PO use systems incorporating digital hardware, software, communication, processing algorithms, interfacing circuits and parameter sensing and actuating devices. PO3 model mechanical engineering systems and be able to specify and assess technical designs. PO4 understand the manufacturing, financial and marketing implications of design proposals. PO identify the links between design, manufacturing and production management and assess the capabilities of manufacturing systems software used in the design, maintenance and improvement of manufacturing facilities. PO6 Communicate and operate effectively either as individuals or as members of a team. PO pursue independent study, undertake enquiry into novel and unfamiliar concepts and implement change in an engineering environment. PO make considered judgements and decisions on complex engineering issues in which not all facts and consequences are accurately known.

PART C: HIGHER EDUCATION ACHIEVEMENT RECORD (HEAR) SYNOPSIS
Graduates of this programme will be equipped with a broad understanding of mechanical analysis and design, combined with knowledge of engineering practice, information technology, project management and manufacturing. The programme produces graduates with a broad-based ‘systems’ approach to engineering problem solving. Graduates from this programme will be equipped to work in multi-disciplinary teams, able to critically appraise existing ideas and practice and produce creative solutions to engineering problems.
PART D: EXTERNAL REFERENCE POINTS AND BENCHMARKS

PART E: REGULATIONS
B: Approved variant to University Academic Regulations and Procedures The following variant regulations have been approved by the University Regulations to comply with conditions set out be Engineering Council UK. The degree classification for the 360 credit honours degree BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering with Manufacturing is based upon o the best marks for 100 credits at level 3 and the best marks achieved for the next 1 00 credits at level 2 or above. o Marks achieved for the 100 level 3 credits are weighted three times the value of the marks for the 100 credits at level 2 or above. o The calculation at level 3 must always use the full credit and mark for the level 3 project module UFMFX8- 30 - 3 followed by the best marks associated with the remaining level 3 credits. o Where the credit size of the best marks associated with the remaining level 3 modules would give a credit total greater than 100, only the relevant portion of credit is counted. The unused credit may be counted towards the set of best marks at level 2 or above. The classification method for direct entrants to the BEng in Mechanical Engineering with Manufacturing will include the marks and whole credit for the project. Condoned Credit From September 2020 intake onwards to comply with conditions set out by Engineering Council UK we will only be able to condone a maximum of 30 credits.
