.: SEGi University College | Engineering & Technology :.

The university is regarded as one of Britain’s foremost attractions in the north east for its surviving historic and cultural heritage. Its teaching has been recognised for excellence by the quality assurance agency in the UK. Sunderland’s school of computing and technology is a leading provider of courses; research and support

for business and the community. The university has since diversified its programmes to tailor to corporate clients, entrepreneurs and researchers alike. Its research in advanced maintenance, automotive Mechatronics, data mining, e-learning, intelligent systems, internet technologies, human-computer interaction, human factors, manufacturing systems, materials and structural analysis, and systems engineering.

This innovative BEng (Hons) Degree programme is offered both as a distance learning course to Independent Learners and as an on-campus course to students able to attend Sunderland or, one its sister centres; around the world. The on campus full-time course consists only of the third level of the programme and is available to suitably qualified students who have attained an HND in Electronic and Electrical Engineering or equivalent. Independent Learners, of course, may elect to join the on-campus programme having completed their Level 1 and 2 modules. The programme covers the fields of Electronics System Design and Electrical Power Engineering, SCADA and PLCs and Operations Management. Appraisal of a student’s prior academic achievement is necessary in most cases, and possible bridging module studies advised where necessary, in order to achieve a smooth transition to final year study. Currently we have sister centres of study offering this course in Havering College at the Centre for Manufacturing Excellence near Dagenham, Essex, Tyndale Electronics School in Singapore, Segi group of Colleges in Malaysia and Hong Kong College of Technology.

It would ideally suit a person qualified to Diploma level or working at technician level with ambition to move into technical management, or a more senior engineer who has encountered a glass ceiling due to the lack of a degree. Students follow the same text based materials as off-campus Independent Learner
students and take the same exam papers but they have the added advantage of being tutored by subject experts, most of whom have been responsible for writing the original course material. Added to this there are the advantages of using the additional and easily accessible resources of the School to complete practical work related to each module, making the option of attendance as a full-time student an attractive alternative to independent study.

Current BEng programmes are accredited by the Institution of Incorporated Engineering (IIE) and accreditation of the new BEng suite of programme is being sought. The recognition can prove invaluable when seeking employment.
