About this course
The Certificate of Higher Education in Global Design Engineering (Cert HE) enables you to explore the content and learning outcomes of the first year of the BEng (Hon) Global Design Engineering.
This programme bridges the many disciplines of engineering, including mechanical, computer, civil, environmental and product design. Projects will be developed around key themes such as smart cities, sustainability, user-centred design and manufacturing. These projects will be real-life industry challenges and will be co-designed and co-delivered with employers.
This interdisciplinary programme is ideal if you’re interested in all aspects of engineering and don’t want to decide on a specific discipline. The skills and knowledge you will gain are equally applicable to systems, products and processes across engineering.
The course is well-suited for anyone considering higher education but unsure about, or unable to, commit to the full 3 year degree. On completion of the certificate, there is the opportunity to progress to a diploma or the degree.
You will acquire knowledge and understanding of:
- The importance of context and understanding of user needs in real-world global problems and the relevance of ethical, environmental, social and cultural aspects of engineering design
- The underpinning scientific, mathematical and engineering principles and methodologies relevant to engineering and design
- The characteristics of materials, equipment, processes, or products
- The design process and design methodologies
- How to apply the principles of engineering design and manufacturing design and development to provide solutions
- As part of this certificate, you will develop a professional portfolio reflecting upon what you learn throughout the year.

This information comes from the National Student Survey, an annual student survey of final-year students. You can use this to see how satisfied students studying this subject area at this university, are (not the individual course).
This is the percentage of final-year students at this university who were "definitely" or "mostly" satisfied with their course. We've analysed this figure against other universities so you can see whether this is high, medium or low.

This information is from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), for undergraduate students only.
You can use this to get an idea of who you might share a lecture with and how they progressed in this subject, here. It's also worth comparing typical A-level subjects and grades students achieved with the current course entry requirements; similarities or differences here could indicate how flexible (or not) a university might be.

Post-six month graduation stats:
This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.
It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.
While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
