What to look for in a course
Compare disciplines such as civil, mechanical, electrical and environmental engineering through the problems they solve. Check required school or university mathematics and science subjects.
If professional recognition matters to your career, check the exact programme and campus with the relevant accreditation body. Recognition is not implied by a university’s reputation.
Examine lab access, capstone work and industry projects. Ask whether any work placement is compulsory and how it fits the academic timetable.
Questions to ask before you apply
- What subjects or prior experience does this exact programme require?
- Which modules are compulsory, and how much choice do I have?
- How are projects, placements and assessments structured?
- What costs sit outside the published tuition fee?
