What does it lead to?

This course gives you with the knowledge you need to progress to our Chemical Engineering BEng Honours degree.

If you are not sure which engineering discipline you are interested in, you should apply for the general Engineering with Foundation Year degree.

This allows you to delay your choice of engineering discipline until the end of the foundation year.

BEng or MEng?

BEng or MEng?

We offer engineering degrees at two levels - BEng and MEng. Both provide a pathway to becoming a Chartered Engineer (CEng). This is one of the most recognised international engineering qualifications.

Our Master of Engineering (MEng) degrees are a direct route to becoming chartered. You don't need to study any more qualifications after your degree to achieve chartered status.

Our BEng degrees can also lead to Chartered Engineer status. However, you'll need to complete further study, like an approved Master's degree.

Visit the Engineering Council's website for information about the benefits of becoming chartered.
