Design for Manufacturers

In close conjunction with the largest and most well-known companies in the IT, banking and finance, consulting and consumer goods industries, we have created this four-year degree, with a unique balance of IT, management, and business, which specifically aims to ensure our graduates have the tools they need to excel in, and lead, the industries of the future.

In each year of your degree you will take a number of individual modules, normally valued at 0.5 or 1.0 credits, adding up to a total of 4.0 credits for the year. Modules are assessed in the academic year in which they are taken. The balance of compulsory and optional modules varies from programme to programme and year to year. A 1.0 credit is considered equivalent to 15 credits in the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS).

The purpose of the first year is to provide you with the best possible grounding in information technology, leadership and management. This will serve as a foundation for the development of professional skills, knowledge, understanding and expertise throughout the rest of the programme.

The second year further develops core knowledge whilst allowing specialisation through choice of an elective option. In this way, you will be able to develop the skills and expertise most appropriate to your career aspirations. Choice of elective options is also a feature of years three and four.

Before the start of your third year you will be expected to identify a specific area for your project dissertation. This is normally undertaken in close collaboration with one or more employers in our network.

The fourth year allows for further study with advanced-level modules and a group/individual consulting project undertaken with an industrial partner.
