    MEng 4th Year Project Demo Day

    Switch on your career in electrical and electronic engineering at The University of Manchester. We're home to one of the largest departments dedicated to the subject in the UK, have fantastic links with industry, and have taught the discipline here since 1905. More than 100 years later, we continue to help solve the day's biggest energy problems.

    The use of electricity, for example, is fundamental to modern life. Without a secure supply, society in its current form would collapse. Consequently, the importance of efficient and sustainable generation, secure distribution, and intelligent user devices cannot be overstated. This will be a lifetime challenge facing the next generation - and electrical and electronic engineers have a vital role to play..

    Spending a year in industry will not only develop your business, team working and transferable skills - all highly sought-after by employers - it will also highlight the broad range of careers on offer to you and guide your choice of subject options. You'll place yourself in a great position to move your career forward.

    In the final year you will complete a team project directly funded by industry or inspired by industrial needs. Past projects have included developing an instrumented training wheelchair for para-athletes, creating a new core infrastructure for a robot orchestrahaptic glove for remote handling, and developing a cyber-secure electricity management system in smart cities.

    In your first year of study there is approximately a 50:50 split between your contact time and independent study; about the same as when studying for A-levels.

    In subsequent years this split changes to a greater amount of independent learning, with the split being approximately 30:70 in the third year and 20:80 in the fourth. This does not mean that less help is available; our staff are here to help.

    Contact time could be in a lecture, example class, tutorial, laboratory class and sometimes may be online (email/e-learning/web blog etc). All of these activities enable you to interact with us to ensure you have the best possible learning experience.

    The course contains strong practical elements: a year-long practical build project of an electronic device in Year 1, a year-long practical build project of an autonomous embedded system in Year 2, a year-long practical research project in Year 3, and an industrially related year-long engineering team project in Year 4.

    An academic supervisor will ensure that your year in industry is strongly related with your degree and you will have the opportunity to spend a year working on engineering projects in an industrial setting.

    Requirements

    Entry Requirements

    If you are studying A-levels or the International Baccalaureate (IB) then you can apply for ‘direct entry’ to the first year of a bachelor’s degree.  Please note that only A-levels or IB will be considered for admission to Medicine or Dentistry.  

    Due to differences in the Jordan and UK education systems, applicants who have taken the Thanaweyyah A’ama (or Tawjihi, secondary school certificate) are required to complete a University-recognised foundation programme before joining an undergraduate course:

    Students who have achieved an overall Thanaweyyah A’ama (or Tawjihi, secondary school certificate) grade of 90% or higher with a minimum of 90% in Mathematics and Physics would be considered for the University’s Science and Engineering with an integrated foundation year programme,  Applications for the University’s Biosciences with a foundation year programme will be considered following completion of the Thanaweyyah A’ama (or Tawjihi, secondary school certificate) on a case by case basis.

    Students who have achieved an overall Thanaweyyah A’ama (or Tawjihi, secondary school certificate) grade of 85% or higher would be considered for the foundation programmes (Engineering and Science, Humanities and Social Sciences (including Management and Law), Biosciences, Pharmacy and Psychology) run in partnership with the University by INTO Manchester. Subject-specific requirements may apply.

    Diplomas from technical colleges may be considered for foundation or first year entry on a case-by-case basis.

    English Program Requirements

    The UK Visa and Immigration Authority (UKVI) requires that every student requiring a visa to study in the UK must show evidence of a minimum level of English language (Common European Framework (CEFR) B2 level) in order to be granted a Student Route visa (previously known as a Tier 4 visa) to study at undergraduate or postgraduate level.

    In addition, our academic Schools may require applicants to demonstrate English proficiency above B2 level, as the academic content of a UK degree can be linguistically demanding. Academic English entry requirements vary by course, and can be found on individual course profiles.

    How to Apply

      Your school may give you an internal deadline date that is earlier than the officialUCASdeadline – this is to ensure that they have time to complete all of the references and process the forms beforethedeadline.

      Most applicants want to spend time thinking about their application. You can log in at different times and enter more information each time you log on. There is no time limit from when you start your application to when you send it, but you need to be aware ofthedeadlines.

      You can only send one UCAS application in each year’sapplicationcycle.

      You can apply for a maximum of five courses. This can either be courses at five different universities, or you may choose to apply to more than one course at thesameuniversity.

      It isvery important that you enter the correct institution code and course code foreachchoice.

      Mature students and independentapplicants

      If you are no longer at school or college you will need to apply to university as an independent applicant. When you register withUCASthey will give you a password and username so that you can access your application wheneveryoulike.
