For each curriculum the Aerospace Engineering CAD offers an Excellence Pathway, to further enhance the education of outstanding students who wish to deepen their methodological and practical studies of topics that interest them. The additional learning in the Excellence Pathway enhances the experience of students who have performed particularly well in Year 1. Access to the Excellence Pathway is by application. The requirements are: acquisition of all the credits for Year 1 by 30th November a weighted average mark in any one examination of at least 27.5/30 and not less than 24/30.
Students who take their degree within the time limits for the course and have also successfully completed the Excellence Pathway are awarded a monetary prize for the same amount as the university fees paid during the previous year, together with a special certificate that is added to their academic record.
The conditions and methods for applying to take the Excellence Pathway, along with a downloadable application form, are given on the CAD website (STUDENTS / Excellence Pathways Section).
