Assessment
3.1
Criteria for Progression and Degree Award
3.1.1 In addition to satisfying the requirements set out in Regulation XX, students
must gain 100 credits (40%) and achieve at least 30% in all compulsory
modules in order to progress from Parts A or B.
3.1.2 The criteria for the award of a degree are in accordance with the scheme
set out in Regulation XX, i.e. students must gain 100 credits (40%) and
achieve at least 20% in all modules in Part C.
3.2
Relative Weighting of Parts of the Programme for the purposes of Final
Degree Classification
Candidates’ final degree classification will be determined on the basis of their
performance in degree level Module Assessments in Parts B and C, in
accordance with the scheme set out in Regulation XX. The overall average
percentage marks for each Part will be combined in the ratio Part B 40: Part C 60,
to determine the degree classification.

3.3
Re-assessment
Provision will be made in accordance with Regulation XX for candidates who
have the right of re-assessment in Parts A and B of the programme to undergo

candidates will normally be required to re-sit during the next academic year but
may be granted the option of re-assessment in SAP at the discretion of the
examiners. Where a candidate has achieved fewer than 60 credits in a part of
the programme, reassessment in the relevant part is not available to that
candidate in the special assessment period.
3.3.1 Limitations of Accreditation
IMechE accreditation will not be granted for BEng candidates who commenced
the programme before 2007 and are re-assessed in individual project module
MMC501.
IET accreditation will not be granted for any candidates who are re-assessed in
individual project module MMC501.
