Scheme for undergraduates

The first two or three years of your degree programme have given you firm foundations for a career in your chosen discipline. But twenty-first century engineers need much more.

Increasingly, the really ground-breaking innovations are generated when engineers work within inter-disciplinary teams and at the boundaries of their individual fields. The Inter-Departmental Exchange (IDX) scheme offers an opportunity to learn and use another specialist 'language'.  

Your department has chosen a suitable subset of modules to offer through IDX. Along with your 'home' electives, these allow you to select a set which pushes the boundaries without becoming incoherent. You will need to check the pre-requisites for IDX courses against your own strengths, and read around the subjects. IDX course assessments are run and examinations marked, only by the host department.

The default exam dates for modules in 2023/24 are:

  • Autumn term AM modules: morning of Thursday 2 May 2024
  • Autumn term PM modules: morning of Friday 3 May 2024
  • Spring term AM modules: morning of Thursday 9 May 2024
  • Spring term PM modules: morning of Friday 10 May 2024

Modules outside of these dates:

  • Spacecraft Propulsion (Aero): Friday 19 January 2024
  • Biomaterials for Bioengineers (Bioengineering): exam to take part at the start of the spring term (TBC)
