INTERCALATED DEGREES
STUDENTS CAN CHOOSE TO SPEND A YEAR IN INDUSTRY, RESEARCH OR STUDY ABROAD AS PART OF THEIR DEGREE.
Intercalated years are typically taken between years two and three, or between years three and four for MEng, and add a year to your degree duration.
A year in industry enables students to apply, build and reflect on their key technical and professional skills in a paid work environment for up to 12 months (see pages 37-38). A year in research is an alternative option for those who may want to develop a career in academia or a particular field of research.
Those choosing to study abroad will have an opportunity live and study in a different cultural setting, therefore enhancing the learning experience.
Please note: study abroad options are offered subject to availability.
