Engineering<br />
Engineers are innovators, engineers are creative and engineers must find efficient and sustainable<br />
solutions to some <strong>of</strong> the greatest challenges facing the world in the 21st century. The <strong>University</strong>’s<br />
Engineering degree courses are exciting and up-to-date and are ranked highly by the pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
accrediting institutions. This mark <strong>of</strong> quality means that you will be taught by engineers who are well<br />
known nationally and internationally in their discipline as successful researchers and practitioners.<br />
This status gives the degree courses a leading edge emphasis and with the state-<strong>of</strong>-the-art<br />
laboratories you will receive an ideal balance <strong>of</strong> theoretical knowledge and practical application.<br />
A broad range <strong>of</strong> engineering degree courses are available with either civil, coastal, mechanical,<br />
marine, electronics or robotics at their core.<br />

<strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Plymouth</strong> degrees<br />
• BEng (Hons) Robotics<br />
• The challenge for today’s electrical<br />
and electronic engineers is to design<br />
smarter devices and systems that<br />
do more but use less energy. This<br />
could be more efficient domestic<br />
appliances and ‘smart’ houses,<br />
‘drive by wire’ cars or more efficient<br />
industrial utilities. The BEng (Hons)<br />
Electrical and Electronic Engineering<br />
degree course was recently reaccredited<br />
by the Institution <strong>of</strong><br />
Engineering and Technology achieving<br />
the maximum score <strong>of</strong> 32/32.<br />
• Robotics development is moving<br />
1,000 times faster than human<br />
evolution. The impact on industrial<br />
and home automation is significant<br />
and this systems-based degree<br />
course prepares the student for these<br />
exciting and varied technologies.<br />
The BEng (Hons) Robotics degree<br />
course was recently re-accredited<br />
by the Institution <strong>of</strong> Engineering<br />
and Technology achieving the<br />
maximum score <strong>of</strong> 32/32.<br />
