The first three years of the course, or four years if you undertake a year-long industrial placement, are the same as our BEng (Hons) Automotive Engineering. Youll then complete a further year to gain your MEng. This final year continues the strong focus on automotive engineering. The MEng programme is accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) to meet the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).

You should apply for this course if you want to meet in full the academic requirements for becoming a Chartered Engineer, which is associated with higher salaries. Employers place particular value on graduates who, because they already have an MEng, dont need to undertake postgraduate studies alongside their day-to-day work.

Throughout the course youll be tackling problems within a practical context. Our sustainable engineering agenda will ensure that youll be equipped to work ethically in a world that needs engineers to meet societal challenges.
