About Materials Science and Engineering with an Industrial Placement Year, BEng - at University of Sheffield

In our core undergraduate degree, you'll discover the underlying principles of materials science, and how these are applied across materials engineering situations. You can keep your course general or tailor your degree in later years with optional materials modules.

As well as lectures and tutorials, you'll learn through experiencing real-world engineering situations with extensive practical work in important manufacturing processes and using the latest investigative equipment. You will also have the opportunity to interact with industry and gain valuable experience of the workplace. 

It is possible to switch between the BEng and MEng (based on performance on the exams in the course) at the end of the second year.

Between your second and third years, you will undertake a year-long placement in industry, which will give you invaluable experience and skills to prepare you for your future career.
