BEng or MEng?
Both our BEng degree and specialist MEng degrees provide a pathway to becoming a Chartered Engineer. This is one of the most recognisable international engineering qualifications.

Our MEng degrees are a direct route to becoming a Chartered Engineer (CEng). You don’t need to study any more qualifications after your degree to work towards chartered status.

Our three-year BEng degree can also lead to Chartered Engineer status. However, you’ll need to complete further study, such as an approved master’s degree.

This MEng Engineering course has been designed alongside industry experts to provide you with a broad-based engineering education. You'll gain the depth of understanding and the interdisciplinary skills required to be successful in a number of engineering sectors.

This flexible general engineering degree is taught across Civil, Electrical & Electronic and Mechanical Engineering. You'll study general engineering themes throughout your degree. You'll develop diverse skills relevant to the needs of industry and today’s global challenges.

You'll specialise in one of three streams during the second year of the degree, whilst continuing to develop in-depth knowledge across the following disciplines:

• Civil Engineering
• Electrical and Electronic Engineering
• Mechanical Engineering

Upon choosing your specialism, you'll also have the option to take a placement year. This will further enhance your learning and employability skills.

Because of our close links with industry, real business skills are embedded throughout the degree. This means you'll develop key multidisciplinary skills and the ability to generate solutions to real-world engineering problems.
