Course summary
Engineering Science encompasses a vast range of subjects, from microelectronics to offshore oil platforms, and involves the application of creative reasoning, science, mathematics (and of course experience and common sense) to real problems. The Department of Engineering Science at Oxford has a top-level quality assessment rating for teaching and a world-class reputation for research. Because we believe that future engineering innovation will benefit from broad foundations as well as specialised knowledge, undergraduate teaching is based on a unified course in Engineering Science, which integrates study of the subject across the traditional boundaries of engineering disciplines. Links between topics in apparently diverse fields of engineering provide well-structured fundamental understanding, and can be exploited to give efficient teaching.

Entry requirements
Qualification requirements
Candidates are expected to have Physics and Mathematics to A-level, Advanced Higher, Higher Level in the IB or any other equivalent. Inclusion of Mathematics Mechanics modules is highly recommended. Further Mathematics can be helpful to students in completing this course, although it is not required for admission. Details of the requirements for other qualifications, including the Advanced Diploma in Engineering, can be found at the www.eng.ox.ac.uk. We expect you to have taken and passed any practical component in your chosen science subjects. For candidates who are predicted A*AA serious consideration will be given to extenuating circumstances, such as disruption to education or bereavement, which have led to under-performance in exams and which are described in their application. Any offer would be conditional on achieving A*A*A. A range of other international qualifications is also acceptable for entry. Please see ox.ac.uk/intquals for further information.

Admission tests
Interview
Physics Admissions Test (PAT)
The PAT is a 2-hour paper-based test. It consists of questions on both Mathematics (including algebra, formulae and mathematical concepts), and Physics. Calculators meeting certain requirements are permitted. The PAT must be taken on a set date which can be found at ox.ac.uk/pat. All applicants must register in plenty of time and before the registration deadline, 18.00 BST on 30 September. See ox.ac.uk/pat for further information, including the specification for permitted calculators.
