Choose Exactly 10 credits from the following Modules:

NOTE : The optional modules EGA103 and EG-134 are chosen depending on the qualifications and academic background of each student. Students who have not done chemistry in their A-levels (or equivalent) will have to choose Foundation Chemistry (EGA103). Students that have taken chemistry, but have not taken physics/mechanics in their A-levels will have to choose Engineering Mechanics (EG-134). All remaining students should choose Engineering Mechanics.
