The one year BEng Top-up programme is designed to complete the journey to a full degree programme, either from a Foundation Degree or equivalent level 5 qualification.
The College offers the following three programmes:
BEng (Hons) Electrical Engineering (Top-Up)
BEng (Hons) Manufacturing Engineering (Top-
Up)
BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering (Top-Up)
The programmes are currently going through accreditation by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council.
This programme is delivered at our Roundhouse campus in the award-winning vocational skills centre packed with the latest industry standard
scientific and mechanical equipment – from rapid prototyping to robotics, CAD to electronics.
The course is delivered as a series of modules that cover the major themes in engineering. Each module will constitute 1.5 hours per week for 36 weeks per year. The lecturer for each module has relevant industry and academic experience.
As well as 9 hours spent in college, it is expected that the student will equal this time working outside the college on assessments, research, revision and other learning activities.
This is a new programme and will run with a minimum of 10 students enrolled on each pathway. It is regulated by HEFCE and awarded by Sheffield Hallam University.

Course Details – Assessment Method
Each module has a different approach to assessment, optimised for the materials studied and skills acquired. There is a common theme of high quality presentation, referenced research and in-depth analysis that runs through all assessments, be they examinations, seminars, coursework or laboratory reports.
The intensity of the programme means that any prospective student must be able to make the commitment to study extensively outside of normal College hours.
