What to watch for
Trent has no engineering faculty. Its only engineering code is Chemical Engineering as a Trent/Swansea dual degree (RCE, 80% minimum), which means part of the degree is taken in Wales. Software Engineering Co-op (RZC, 85-90%) is a computing degree, not accredited engineering. For any other discipline, Trent is not the campus.
