BEng (Hons) Engineering with a Year Abroad

Engineering is the pursuit of solutions: solving complex global problems through innovation, imagination, and ingenuity. Engineers create, design, and manufacture, playing a crucial role in shaping the future of society. At UEA, our BEng Engineering with a Year Abroad course will develop your capacity to tackle society’s biggest challenges.

Our integrated programme allows you to gain a wide base of knowledge across engineering subjects during your first year. As a result, you’ll have access to an array of career pathways, alongside the option of further study. You’ll also have the chance to specialise in energy, mechanical, or electrical and electronic engineering from your second year.

Your first-year modules will give you the knowledge, skills, and industrial connections to support your aspirations. Then, in year two, you can tailor your course to match your interests, selecting optional modules to broaden your knowledge. You’ll spend your third year studying abroad with one of our partner universities, gaining a new perspective on your subject while building confidence and intellectual flexibility.

You’ll return to UEA for the final year, completing an individual project on a topic of your choice.
