Course Summary

**Course Overview** - Our Energy Engineering Foundation Entry degree course prepares graduate energy engineers to take on one of the most pressing issues facing society today, the future security of our energy supply. - Foundation Entry degree courses are designed for students who have the ability to study for a degree, but don’t have the necessary formal qualifications to directly enter their chosen Honours degree programme. - Take an extra year to deepen your knowledge and gain real-life practical industrial experience in this rapidly-growing field. You can work your way more quickly towards Chartered Engineer (CEng) status. - With the support of our highly-skilled teaching staff, you’ll gain the contemporary technical design, power generation and operations skills you need to increase energy efficiency and further develop renewable sources of energy. - Our course is firmly industry-led, meaning you’ll graduate with the skills and knowledge you need to engineer a sustainable future. **Why study with us** - Master of Engineering with Honours in Energy Engineering (Foundation Entry) is ranked 5th in the UK for student satisfaction (Complete University Guide 2021) - Join our Innovation Club and work with a diverse group of students and staff on projects using complex systems. - Benefit from the latest high-quality equipment and facilities available through our new £35m Engineering Innovation Centre.
