If you have ambitions of being a Chartered Engineer (CEng) then this course will provide you with the ideal start.
It is accredited by the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) on behalf of the Engineering Council for the purposes of fully meeting the academic requirement for registration as a Chartered Engineer. Graduates holding professional status and accredited degrees are highly valued by employers in the UK and internationally.
If you choose to take this degree on a part-time basis, it will take two years to reach Master’s level and you will then have a further six-month project to undertake.
During the course, you’ll apply mathematical and computer-based models for solving problems in engineering design. The nature of this course is business-driven and you will apply your knowledge to specific design problems. The research undertaken as part of the Individual Master’s Project will give you an opportunity to explore your particular area of interest in greater depth.
