The MChem Chemistry with an Industrial Placement Year course gives you a great opportunity to build up your CV. You will spend your third year working at a leading organisation in the chemical industry, paying reduced fees for the year you are on placement.

The BSc Chemistry with an Industrial Placement Year gives you a great opportunity to build up your CV. You will spend 12 months between your second and third years on a work placement, paying reduced fees for the year you are away from campus.

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.

Develop a broad knowledge and understanding of engineering on this five-year MEng degree while developing skills in independent thinking and the professional skills necessary for a career in industry. You can take an optional year in industry between years three and four to gain first-hand employment experience.

Develop a broad knowledge and understanding of engineering on this four-year BEng (Hons) degree while gaining skills in independent thinking and the professional skills necessary for a career in industry. You can take an optional year in industry between years two and three to gain first-hand employment experience.

You will study in Sheffield for the first three years of your course where you will cover the theoretical and practical aspects across the range of electrical and electronic engineering. In your fourth year you have the opportunity to put into practice what you have learnt by working for a year in an engineering company before returning to Sheffield for your final year of study.

In the first three years of your course, you’ll cover fundamental concepts in mechatronic and robotic areas, including mathematics, intelligent system design, computing, control, electronics and embedded systems. In your fourth year you’ll put into practice what you’ve learnt on your industrial placement, before returning to Sheffield for your final year of study.

In the first two years of your course, you’ll cover fundamental concepts in mechatronic and robotic areas, including mathematics, intelligent system design, computing, control, electronics and embedded systems. In your third year you’ll put into practice what you’ve learnt on your industrial placement, before returning to Sheffield for your final year of study.

This course will give you a good broad knowledge of civil engineering, and gain first-hand industry experience. You will benefit from experiencing the culture in industry, making contacts, and operating as a graduate engineer.

The year in industry is a one-year extension of the MEng Chemical Engineering degree. With help from our careers and placements team we will help you find and secure your own placement. You'll have a placement in industry for at least 38 weeks.

This degree covers the fundamental principles of engineering, and gives you the freedom to follow your own interests in your third and fifth years. You'll also spend a year putting what you've learnt into practice, working with real mechanical engineers in industry.

Learn about the design and operation of processes for making products such as fuels, medicines, plastics, food and materials for high technology industries. Between years two and three you'll take a paid placement in the chemical engineering industry, putting your academic studies into context and making you even more employable.

A placement year will contextualise your academic studies, allowing you to experience first-hand the culture in industry, as well as making contacts and honing your professional skills. It will give you a distinct advantage in the job market upon graduation.

Put your physics knowledge into practice in the real world. As part of their degrees, our students have worked on new particle accelerators at government laboratories, applied their analysis skills to data science jobs in the civil service, and joined the Large Hadron Collider team at CERN.

Study the maths and physics that govern the universe, and build up your CV with a work placement. Our students have used their numerical and problem-solving skills on placements in data science with the civil service and with the Large Hadron Collider team at CERN.

Develop the skills for a career in research, then put this into practice on your industrial placement. Previous students have completed placements in data science in the civil service and joined the Large Hadron Collider team at CERN. After your placement, you’ll join the theoretical physics research team here in Sheffield and run your own project.

On this course, you'll study all the engineering disciplines associated with buildings and their infrastructure, and develop an understanding of architectural thinking and practice. You will also gain first-hand industry experience.
