Overview

Engineering and Physical Sciences Foundation Programme: Design Engineering is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Engineering is accredited by a professional institution at most universities, which is what counts later if you want chartered status.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
