This professionally extends their development of their engineering knowledge and skills whilst assessing students’ ability to be critically transformative in respect to their career development.

    PETR3009
    Integrating Technologies for Contemporary and Future Engineering Sectors

    This module focuses on the integrating of mechanical, electrical and electronic, and computing technologies in the solutions that contemporary and future engineering sectors provide. Knowledge and understanding, as well as the abilities to synthesise technologies, employ through group work and showcase their engineered solutions will be addressed through this module.

    PETR3010
    Individual Engineering Project

    Work-based, industry-focused or academic independent critical inquiry of an engineering problem. A critical review of extant knowledge allows the student to identify a focus for their inquiry that may relate to either integrated technologies or mechanical, electrical and electronic or digital technologies as appropriate to their degree choice. The student is guided by an academic supervisor in seeking their work to be defensible by the evidence their review of extant knowledge and own empirical work provides.

Our partnership with Petroc

The University of Plymouth has developed partnerships with institutions around the world with the sole purpose of making higher education more accessible to those people who need something just a little different.

Our Academic Partnerships enable students to enrol for a degree at a partnership institution closer to home, or engage in distance learning – even when they’re in the middle of the ocean. They are there for those people looking to return to education, or enhance their professional development. Full- or part-time; foundation degree to masters-level – we cater for a huge variety of needs and aspirations.

Many of our partners offer specialist degrees, unique facilities, and smaller class sizes at a competitive price. And as a student of two institutions, you get the best of both worlds; a supportive learning environment as part of a close-knit community, and a university-level qualification awarded by the University of Plymouth. You’ll enjoy not only the facilities and services your partnership institution provides, but also all of the additional support and resources you need from us, and you’ll automatically become a member of our Students’ Union, too.

We are continuing to grow the number of partner institutions and expand our academic community to new locations around the UK and overseas. Why not visit the Academic Partnerships page on our website for a full list of partners and for more details on studying with us?

One of our partners delivers this particular course – so please visit their website for full course details, entry requirements, tuition fees and information on what student life is like there.
