About this course
**About This Course**
Deepen your knowledge and understanding of engineering and fast-track your journey to becoming a chartered engineer with our four-year MEng Engineering degree.
For your first three years you’ll follow the same programme as our BEng Engineering students. Then in your final year you will put what you’ve learnt to the test with a multidisciplinary design project. A major team-based project, it will mark the culmination of your study and will encourage you to explore the breadth of your learning in the context of an industrial project. You’ll be given a real brief to work from, and you’ll be encouraged to undertake site visits, engage with the company as a client and develop proposals, which you’ll then present to professional engineers.
Our programmes promote the development of a new breed of highly versatile engineering graduate, possessing the capacity to take the lead in finding solutions to society’s biggest challenges. We aim to produce pioneering graduates, capable of supporting a changing industry through their intellectual flexibility.
**Overview**
All engineering courses within the School 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. You’ll get a taste of the many career paths engineering will open up to you, through meeting role-models, attending site visits and exploring opportunities for short-term internships and placements. We actively encourage you to develop your networking abilities, learning to make the most of your exposure to our industrial contacts. You’ll also have the option of participating in SELECT, UEA’s engineering internship scheme, from your first year.

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.

This information is from the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA), for undergraduate students only.
You can use this to get an idea of who you might share a lecture with and how they progressed in this subject, here. It's also worth comparing typical A-level subjects and grades students achieved with the current course entry requirements; similarities or differences here could indicate how flexible (or not) a university might be.

Post-six month graduation stats:
This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.
It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.
While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
