Program Overview

Undergraduate Foundation Programme in Engineering and Sciences
The Undergraduate Foundation Programme in Engineering and Sciences is a preparation programme for international students who don’t meet the direct entry requirements for an undergraduate degree at the University of Strathclyde. This pathway will prepare you for your chosen undergraduate degree at the Faculty of Engineering or Faculty of Science. Once you successfully complete the programme, you will progress to the second year of a four-year undergraduate degree.

You will study three core modules that will focus on general skills useful in your progression degree, plus route modules specific to your academic area.

Once you have completed the Undergraduate Foundation Programme, and subject to satisfying the progression criteria, you can proceed to the second year* of your four-year degree at the University.

Leading to: Product Design Engineering BEng (Hons)
Product design engineering is an exciting industry that continually evolves alongside technology, product advancements, the demand for quicker turnaround times, unique and personalised products, and environmentally friendly supply chains and production.

It's about understanding product requirements and functionality, questioning existing ways of doing things and seeing opportunities to change things for the better.

Product design engineering blends a more technical engineering focus (such as mechanics, electronics, maths, engineering calculations of a products' design) with design principles, user experience, and technology to create new functional products or develop existing ones that can then be sold in competitive markets.

This is integrated with manufacturing processes, CAD, rapid prototyping and digital prototyping technologies, software and practical skills to turn the design into reality which is fundamental to global market success and requires not only customer appeal, aesthetics and brand awareness but also consistent and correct functionality, superior quality and fitness for purposes all at a competitive price.
