The session is spent in an institution of higher education in Continental Europe. Links are established with several French Grandes Ecole, the German universities of Erlangen and Hannover. Material covered includes electrical and electronic engineering, mathematics and non-technical subjects.
Students will acquire skills similar to those corresponding to the third year of the H606 programme offered at Bristol. In particular, students are required to ensure that material equivalent to the following units forms part of their Year 3 abroad: Control 3 (EENG33000), Embedded and Real-Time Systems - Basic (EENG34030), VLSI Design 3 (EENG34050), Networks and Protocols 3 (EENG34200), Electronics 3 (EENG36000), Industrial Electronics 3 (EENG37000). The learning outcomes should be equivalent to the learning outcomes defined by these units In addition, students are advised to take a group project equivalent to EENG 38030 while abroad.
This ensures that students who study abroad are satisfying all the professional requirements of the discipline when they return from their year abroad.
The host institution s programme structure and modes of teaching will be followed. All institutions are approved by the university in consultation with the department for international exchange via the international office.
Assessments for the year will be based on the work at the chosen University. Assessment methods are in the form of written exams and submission of assessed coursework. All assessments are run by the host institution. The assessment is to be based on approximately 120 Bristol credits or a minimum of 100 with additional project work. Each destination will have a designated number of credits that is considered equivalent of 120 Bristol credit points. The mark awarded by the chosen University will be adjusted to an equivalent Bristol mark using approved conversion algorithms.
Reading lists will be provided by the host University.
