Engineering (Industrial Engineering) - BEng Hons Degree (Part-time)

Industrial engineers operate at the centre of complex processes, systems and organisations, putting into practice their technical engineering knowledge, alongside expertise in business development, operations management and project management. This three-year, part-time BEng (Hons) Industrial Engineering programme, which is designed for students who have already completed a relevant Level 4 qualification and are ideally looking to combine study with existing work commitments, will empower you with the versatility, flexibility and adaptability to succeed in this exciting and fast-paced environment. Starting at Level 5 and building on your existing foundational knowledge of core engineering principles, you will acquire a deep understanding of industry, business, quality and management processes taking a keen interest in human factors, improvement, ergonomics, customer satisfaction and quality. Having garnered all this knowledge, you will be ideally placed to optimise or even create the complex processes and systems that allow organisations to achieve higher levels of efficiency by saving time, money or effort or by increasing quality or productivity.

A minimum of 48 UCAS points (excluding Functional Skills) in an appropriate discipline: DD from A levels to include mathematics and a technology, engineering or science-based subject; PPP from Extended Diploma, MP from Diploma, MM from 90 Credit Diploma in a science or technology-based subject, including passes in mathematics.

Most courses are assessed via a combination of coursework, exams and practical assessments. Exams are formal, timed written assessments, carried out in a controlled environment and overseen by one or more invigilators. Coursework differs from exams in that it is usually non-timed and carried out independently. Practical assessments involve observation of your practical skills and competencies by a trained assessor. Please contact us for further details about the course.
