Engineers create innovative solutions to real-world problems. We invent products, systems and processes that are faster, smaller, cleaner, safer, stronger, more efficient, more environmentally friendly, more economical, more sustainable and more marketable.
Engineering is all around us, making up much of what we take for granted - telecommunications, transport, energy generation and distribution, buildings, bridges, water supply, materials, fuels and much more. Engineering at Edinburgh has a long and distinguished history and enjoys a vibrant and successful present. As an Edinburgh graduate, you will have a unique blend of technical skills, ingenuity and entrepreneurship, opening the door to a rewarding career. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
This programme is designed for international students who have not previously been able to access our undergraduate degrees, due to the fact that their school-leaving qualification was not recognised by the University of Edinburgh.
This innovative programme is integrated into the first year, so unlike many other foundation programmes, will not mean an extra year of study.
After successful completion of the first year, students will have the opportunity to transfer into a variety of different degree programmes, within their chosen subject area.
