These courses are designed for high achievers who intend to qualify as Chartered Engineers and take leading roles in industry. Students follow the first two years of the relevant BEng course and then take a further two years to complete the MEng. The extra year enables you to broaden and deepen your range of experience, preparing you to take a high level of responsibility in industry. The courses aim to produce graduates who have both a sound technical knowledge and an understanding of management techniques and leadership issues. Professional recognition is offered by the appropriate professional institution in the UK and Europe.
Advanced studies lead to enhanced employment prospects.
Overseas placements for work or study are an option for all students. Course content You follow the relevant BEng course for the first two years of the course. The last two years of the course cover extended studies in your chosen engineering discipline, as well as further design studies, an extended project and studies of the management problems encountered in engineering. One of the key features of all the MEng courses is the multidisciplinary design project. For example current students are working to make a country estate into an energy island that is self sufficient in using renewable resources only.
