There are four Level 8 Honours Bachelor of Engineering Degrees (BE) available at University College Cork:
CK601 BE (Hons) Process
& Chemical Engineering
CK602 BE (Hons) Civil Engineering
CK603 BE (Hons) Energy Engineering
CK605 BE (Hons) Electrical and
Electronic Engineering
The degree in Process & Chemical Engineering (CK601) offers students a choice between three specialisations: pharmaceutical; food and bioprocessing industry; or supply chain engineering & management, from third year. The degree includes a six month work placement between third and fourth year.
The degree in Civil Engineering (CK602) is offered by the department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and specialisations exist within the degree in the areas of structural engineering and construction, infrastructure and environmental engineering, environmental services in buildings and in informatic systems and engineering management.
The degree in Energy Engineering (CK603) is offered jointly by the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and draws upon the expertise of the staff in these departments to produce Engineers with a skill set targeted at the increasingly important energy sector. Energy engineering involves sourcing, assessing, designing, converting, transmitting and supplying useful energy to meet our needs for electricity, transportation and heating and cooling.
The degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (CK605) is offered jointly by the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and the Department of Microelectronic Engineering and includes a five month work placement either in Ireland or abroad. Students can take specialist modules in a broad range of topics including among others; circuit design, signal processing, telecommunications, microelectronic engineering, control engineering, electrical and electronic power supply systems, optoelectronics/photonics and radio frequency electronics.
