A career in Engineering requires imagination, innovation, and offers a positive challenge? It involves science, engineering and technology

There are a huge number of exciting and diverse opportunities the world of industry has to offer. Imagine a world without Engineers or without all the products that are created by Engineers. Often the most impressive engineering achievements are hidden from view. For example, when you play Guitar Hero, Wi Fi or multiplayer on line games think about the technology, all this needs engineers as well as the more ‘visible’ civil engineering work

There are schemes in Engineering Education in England & Scotland

Which provide you with an in-depth experience in science, engineering and technology that will enable you to make an informed decision about your future studies and career.

You will work in a team of around four students on a real engineering/scientific problem, the solution to which is important to a local company. The company will supply an engineer mentor to support the team to apply project management techniques to help find a solution to the problem.
The project lasts around 6 months and includes the following special events:

• venue to utilise the facilities and progress the project
•    Celebration and Assessment Day (CAD) During the project phase you will gain experience of problem solving, team working, presentation skills and project management.

Company visit to see the project in context Scheme launch University Residential Workshop (RWS). Minimum of 3 days at a regional university or similar

These are real projects, and on completion, many of the outcomes are implemented by the companies/ organisations involved.

You will get in-depth, hands on experience of engineering, design and research at a professional level which will help you make an informed decision about your future studies and career. For more informa- tion visit
