Programme Benefits

Upon successful completion of this qualification, graduates will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to pursue a new career, or advance an existing one in the Engineering sector. Engineering careers can begin with work opportunities with small to medium enterprise organisations (those with fewer than 250 employees), or with national and multi-national organisations. Many also go onto self-employment, which is usually not possible until a graduate has several years’ experience. Other graduates will go on to work for large organisations, which may comprise roles in engineering management, engineering maintenance and servicing, project management, design engineering, planning or working on large infrastructure projects linked to the engineering and construction industries.

What Next?

Further study in engineering or employment in industry as an Engineer are the options available to students once the programme is successfully completed.
