Best mechanical engineering universities in Britain 2024 | Complete University Guide

Top UK Universities in Engineering Studies offer two types of engineering programs for foreign students:

B.Eng (Bachelor of Engineering)
M.Eng (Master of Engineering).

The UK has some of the top rated engineering schools in the world. An engineering education opens up employment prospects in areas such as research, development, design, manufacturing, product and service operations.

Engineers belong to one of the greatest professions in the world: they are responsible for almost everything we use, consume and need every day, often occupying key positions in industry and commerce.

The demand for good engineers is high: there is a shortage of certified engineers in the financial, mechanical, information, and electronic sectors in the world, and unemployment among professional engineers is lower than in any other profession.

In the UK alone, the engineering industry accounts for about 40% of the gross domestic product and is a key part of the national economy.
