Thermodynamics in a Broad Based Course

The Special Engineering Programme (SEP) is one of the original eight enhanced engineering courses introduced by the UGC. The course incorporates Mechanical, Electrical and Production Engineering with Business Studies. SEP is taught at Brunei in a specially created department — Engineering and Management Systems (E. and M.S.); and like all Brunei undergraduate courses it is a b year thin sandwich programme. Entry to the course is limited to about 30 highly able and motivated students each year. The scale and philosophy are such that much use is made of student active learning and a variety of small group techniques; project work is significant in all four years.
