Accreditations

This course is accredited by the CIBSE, as meeting, in part, the academic requirements for Chartered Engineer registration preparing you to gain (CEng) status. The Institution provides first-class information and education services to support professionals and promote good practice.

Future Careers

Students studying Building Services and Sustainable Engineering go on to establish professional careers in consultancy, design, contracting, project management and maintenance.

The level of education on this course is appropriate to students who will eventually hold senior positions with consultants or contractors engaged in building services engineering.

These organisations include technical departments of government and semi-government institutions where building energy management is a major concern.

Part-time students already working in the industry will graduate with a competitive edge and full membership of professional bodies.

A three-year degree qualification typically comprises 360 credits and each 20 credits (a standard module) equates to 200 hours of study.

Modules comprise a mixture of lectures, seminars, tutorials, practical sessions and independent study.

Independent study is an important aspect of your degree course. The exact combination of study time will be detailed within your module descriptors, and will depend on your options.

We have links with design consultancies and local contractors as well as smaller companies in the region and offer help and assistance to more than 1,000 of these. With many of our graduates staying in the region, it is important we develop these relationships.

Depending on the learning outcomes and the nature of the module, assessment can be:

By completion of assignments and problem-based examinations in engineering and related modules throughout the programme.
By presentations and design-based projects.
By student presentations, group work, design projects, dissertation, examination.
