Energy Engineering with a year in Industry

Overview

As the demand for clean energy grows, so does the demand for energy engineering graduates. This course equips you with the skills, knowledge, and industrial connections you’ll need to tackle global energy challenges and shape the future of our society.

East Anglia is a significant region for energy engineering, and you’ll see the benefits of our connections with local industry from the very start of your four-year course. You’ll have access to an array of career pathways, alongside the option of further study.

You’ll study an integrated programme for the first year, providing a broad insight into the incredible potential of engineering. From year two, you’ll specialise in energy engineering, building theoretical knowledge and practical skills. You can also enrich your learning experience with optional modules in the Schools of Environmental Sciences or Computing Sciences, to become a truly interdisciplinary engineer. You’ll spend your third year in industry, applying your learning in a practical context, before returning to UEA to complete your studies.

From the beginning of your course, you’ll have access to industry-standard facilities in Productivity East, including computer aided design (CAD) stations, 3D printers, subtractive manufacturing technology, and several collaborative robots. You’ll also be able to demonstrate your abilities to industry professionals through frequent events like our annual Select Partnership Scheme.

Studying toward an Energy Engineering degree at UEA means you’ll graduate with a wide range of theoretical knowledge, practical experience and employability skills. As you transition into your career, you’ll be supported by our award-winning careers service for up to three years after graduation.
