You’ll benefit from our connections with local industry right from the start of your course. You’ll get a taste of the many career paths engineering will open up to you, through mentors and role-models, site visits, and short-term internships and placements. We actively encourage you to develop your networking abilities and make the most of our industrial contacts throughout your studies. You’ll also have the option of participating in our annual Select partnership scheme and UEA’s Engineering internship schemes to enhance your learning even further.   About This Course This course offers you the first steps to becoming a Chartered Engineer, presenting all the learning experiences and opportunities for industrial connections that will support your aspirations. Our engineering courses follow an integrated programme structure for the first year. This broadens your insight into the wealth of opportunities that are available to you as a student of engineering, as you forge your future career pathway. This MEng Engineering course delivers the learning outcomes and skills required of a graduate engineer seeking Chartered Engineer status. You'll also be able to tailor your engineering studies to your interests, selecting from our catalogue of optional modules. Our general engineering course presents an opportunity to access resources and experience from across UEA Schools such as Environmental Sciences and Computing Sciences, your learning can match your personal and career ambitions. For your first three years, you’ll follow the same programme as our BEng Engineering course. Then in your final year, you’ll focus on a multidisciplinary design project. This major team-based project will mark the culmination of your engineering studies and will encourage you to expand your learning in partnership with industry. You’ll work from a real-world industrial brief and you’ll be encouraged to undertake site visits so that you can develop proposals, designs, and operations supported by financial considerations. You’ll consider the project planning, implementation, and delivery in association with risk, all themes fundamental to engineering businesses. You’ll then present your proposals to professional engineers. We produce pioneering graduates with the intellectual flexibility to support a changing industry. Our Master’s degree in engineering establishes a new breed of highly versatile engineers who can span the boundaries of the engineering disciplines, adapt to change, and find solutions to society’s biggest challenges. This course is accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purpose of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer.

Modules

Year 1 is made up of compulsory modules which will provide you with a solid grounding in mathematics and engineering. These modules include Engineering Studies, Engineering Principles and Law and Mathematics for Scientists. As your studies progress, you will develop knowledge of general, Mechanical or Electronic and Electrical engineering. In Years 2 and 3, you will have a combination of compulsory modules - such as Analogue and Digital Electronics - and optional modules such as Vibration and Dynamics or Meteorology and Global Environmental Change. You will also complete an individual research project in your final year which you can be based on your own engineering interests. In your final year, you will complete a team-based design project required for Engineering Council accreditation. This will give you the opportunity to put what you have learnt into practice and address and solve a real-world problem.
