The College of Engineering and Physical Sciences has a long and proud tradition of educating students from across the globe. We welcome scholars from over 200 countries who contribute to the strong international atmosphere that is a major feature of the college. You will study at the leading edge of modern science and engineering. The College covers a broad range of world-leading research, from developing microengines to our particle physics research at CERN. STEM (Science, Technology, Enineering and Mathematics) subjects are critically important in the development of our future fuels, materials and machines, and the College plays a significant role in training the next generation of world-class engineers and scientists to solve our future challenges. We have strong links with major UK employers such as Rolls-Royce and Airbus, and our staff and students are at the forefront of research into a wide variety of areas, from working with particle physicists at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland to using nanotechnology to develop microengines. The Engineering and Physical Sciences Pathway will lead you towards an undergraduate degree in one of the following: Chemical Engineering Chemistry Civil Engineering Computer Science Electronic, Electrical and Computer Engineering Mathematics Mechanical Engineering Metallurgy and Materials Physics and Astronomy See the Engineering and Physical Sciences Pathway progression table 2013 for more information about the undergraduate degrees available for a Foundation Academy student choosing this pathway and the compulsory and optional modules you should undertake.

Graduates from these degree programmes benefit from excellent career prospects in major, globally recognised companies in industries as diverse as food, electronics, construction, pharmaceuticals and space technology; or you could continue into higher studies leading to careers in research and development
