MEng Engineering with a Year in Industry

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 engineering course will develop your capacity to tackle society’s biggest challenges.

Our integrated MEng Engineering with a Year in Industry 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 can also take optional modules in Environmental Sciences or Computing Sciences to broaden your knowledge base and increase your employability skills.

You’ll spend your third year in industry, applying your knowledge and skills in a practical context, before returning to UEA to complete your studies. The MEng version of this course culminates in a team-based multidisciplinary design project in which you and your teammates will work on an industry brief.
