If you are unsure about which engineering discipline you are most interested in, this option allows you to explore which engineering discipline interests you the most and defer your choice of degree programme to before the start of Year 2.



This programme does not lead to a general engineering degree. Instead, at the start of Year 2, you will join one of the following degree programmes:


  • BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Chemical Engineering*
  • BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Civil Engineering 
  • BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Electronics and Electrical Engineering 
  • BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Electrical and Mechanical Engineering 
  • BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Mechanical Engineering 
  • BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Structural and Fire Safety Engineering



* BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Chemical Engineering is only available if you have taken the necessary prerequisite courses.



Transfers to Electronics and Computer Science may be considered on a competitive basis but are not guaranteed and would only be available if you have taken necessary prerequisite courses.



You cannot join BEng(Hons)/MEng(Hons) Structural Engineering with Architecture in Year 2. You must join these directly in Year 1.



(Revised 12 March 2025 to update the wording about transfers to Electronics and Computer Science)



How long it takes to complete this degree programme



Your chosen degree will take 4 or 5 years in total depending on whether you move into a Bachelor of Engineering (BEng) or Master of Engineering (MEng) programme respectively.
