MEng ENGINEERING WITH A YEAR IN INDUSTRY
MENG ENGINEERING WITH A YEAR IN INDUSTRY
All engineering courses within the School of Engineering share an integrated programme structure during the first year to demonstrate the potential breadth of the discipline. In subsequent years you can tailor your course or continue to pursue a broad-based approach. We work closely with other UEA Schools including Environmental Sciences, Computing Sciences and Mathematics, so your learning is informed by a range of expertise.
You’ll benefit from and experience our connections with local industry right from the start of your course. The Institute of Productivity, within UEA’s School of Engineering offers a space for connection as industry shares and works within the same environment as our students. This connection will help to inform and support your decisions concerning the many career pathways engineering will open up to you, and which one you might focus one as you progress through your studies. Through meeting role-models, attending site visits and networking, we aim to help you decide which engineering sector you may wish to consider spending a year working in industry between your second and third year.
About
This course aims to develop future leaders in the engineering sectors. Demand for Engineers is high as a widening lack of skills in the sector is not supporting the need for those engineers who will take us through the digital age. The School of Engineering at UEA is mindful of the need to develop this new breed of engineers and its Institute of Productivity was established to support both the demand for the volume and characteristics of the engineers that are needed for the future.
Our integrated Master’s course will help you understand the technological and digital developments that will shape the energy industry of the future. And you’ll be given integrated learning opportunities from the outset that often reflect a real industrial context, supporting the development of your soft and hard engineering knowledge and skills. These learning opportunities will be consolidated in industry while on placement.
