Study/Engineering Courses
What about Accredited Degrees?
If you want to take up a
career as a professional engineer, it is important
to check the status of your university degree course
before you apply. Completion of an accredited degree
course provides a suitable academic base for
obtaining professional recognition as a Chartered
Engineer (CEng) or Incorporated Engineer (IEng).
This requires registering with the Engineering
Council (UK), through a professional institution -
www.engc.org.uk.
In the UK, the national bodies
for engineering are the Engineering Council (UK) and
the Engineering Technology Board (ETB). The
Engineering Technology Board promotes the science
and practice of engineering. Whilst the Engineering
Council (UK) works in partnership with the
professional institutions, and is responsible for
maintaining the Standards and Routes to Registration
(SARTOR), and endeavours to provide a world-class
engineering workforce capable of maximising its
technological developments.
More information is available
(via our links

Professional Institutions' web sites.
