Programme Specific

The minimum programme entry requirements to the BriTE programme are:

For BEng (Hons) in Mechanical, Civil, Mechatronics or Chemical Engineering

  • CDD or 200 ‘A’ level points in three subjects including: Mathematics, Physics and any other relevant Science subject (Chemistry, Further Mathematics, Biology, Computer Science, Design and Technology).
  • International Baccalaureate of 24 points at higher level subjects including Mathematics, Physics and other relevant Science subjects (Computer Science, Chemistry, Design Technology).

For BEng (Hons) in Electrical and Electronic Engineering

  • DDD or 180 ‘A’ level points in three subjects including: minimum D grades in both Mathematics and Physics, and any other relevant Science subject (Chemistry, Further Mathematics, Biology).
  • CC or 160 ‘A’ level points in two subjects, with minimum C grades in both Mathematics and Physics.
  • International Baccalaureate of 24 points at higher level subjects including Mathematics, Physics and other relevant Science subjects (Chemistry, Computer Science, Design Technology).

For BSc (Hons) in Food Science and Technology

  • CDD or 200 ‘A’ level points in three subjects including two relevant subjects (Biology, Chemistry, Food Studies, Physics and Mathematics)
  • CC or 160 ‘A’ level points in two relevant subjects (Biology, Chemistry, Food Studies, Physics and Mathematics)

Introduction to Programming

3 core modules are offered: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. These are taught through lectures, tutorials and practical sessions. Students with sufficient ‘A’ level grade as required for admission to the undergraduate degree may be exempted from taking the relevant module.

For example, UTB’s BEng Mechatronic Engineering programme entry requirement is a minimum of 220 ‘A’ Level points for 3 ‘A’ level passes in both Mathematics and Physics at Grade C or higher, and a Science subject (Design and Technology / Chemistry / Further Mathematics / Computing). An applicant who has already obtained a Grade C in Physics may then be exempted from taking the Physics module in BriTE. Students on BriTE will therefore take a minimum of one core module and a maximum of 3 core modules. In addition to the core modules, students will also take Introduction to Programming as a compulsory module.

Eligibility for admission into UTB Undergraduate Programmes

Students who obtain at least 60% marks per enrolled module will be eligible for admission into the first year of the selected Faculty of Engineering/School of Applied Sciences and Mathematics/School of Design undergraduate programmes of their choice.
