Overview

We list Marine Engineering BEng because it keeps coming up in counselling sessions, and because the spread of entry terms across the UK is wider than most applicants expect. It is a 3 years undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Marine Engineering is accredited work in most departments, which matters for chartered status later. We currently work with 10 universities on this course across 9 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £18.000 to £30.500 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

The fastest way to narrow this down is to send us your grades and English score. We will come back with a shortlist rather than a brochure.
