All
Engineering degrees include basic subject such as engineering science, mathematics
, computing, design principles, materials and finance. It is possible to study
a general engineering degrees and then specialized or go straight in to a specialist
degree. specialized degrees cover areas such as acoustics, communications, aerospace,
control, power, computing, prosthetics, ship and marine, electronic audio, mining
and areas connected to construction engineering such as civil and environmental
services and construction.
The
duration of the course last from 3 to 5 years and lead to a BSc, BEng and MEng.
MEng degree usually lasts for 4 or 5 years and covers management training. It
was created to provide engineers with the skills needed to manage projects and
staff. Only high achieving students are eligible for MEng.
Higher
National Diploma or HND is available in specialist areas of engineering. They
last 2 or 3 years and lead to engineering technicians careers. These courses
have a heavy emphasis on project works with necessary lectures and seminars.
Engineering
subjects are also available on modular degrees. Some degree count towards professional
qualifications awarded by certain professional organisations like The Institution
of mechanical engineers and The Institution of electrical engineers.
