Stage 4

The Engineering Science Stage 4 Electrical Power Engineering Stream is a 60 credit undergraduate year of study.

The normal workload is 30 credits per trimester or 60 credits per year.

Following successful completion of Stage 4, students will progress into Stage 2 (Year 2) of their Master of Engineering (ME) Programme, and modules from Stage 4 will be mapped forward in place of Stage 1 (Year 1) of the ME.

Students may need to consult with the Programme Director before registering to their modules.

If you have been on Study Abroad for Stage 3, you should consult the Programme Director about prerequisites or other special requirements.
