Accredited Degrees
The Society accredits a wide range of academic programmes for those seeking professional registration. Graduates with accredited degrees have a distinct advantage when they apply for CEng or IEng and many employers give preference to graduates with accredited degrees. See the list of degrees accredited by the Society.
However, the Society will accept any course accredited by any engineering Institution. Go to the searchable Engineering Council database of accredited courses, including those that have been accredited by the Society.
Accreditation is particularly relevant to young people planning to gain EngTech, IEng or CEng registration and a career in aerospace.
Academic Institutions seeking accreditation
For guidance notes and application forms for universities seeking accreditation or reaccreditation, go to the Accreditation Handbook. The application form and additional information can be found in the Appendices document
The Society makes a small charge to offset the cost of accreditation visits for university that are not members of its Corporate Partner Scheme.
The Society carries out its accreditation activities in accordance with Engineering Council Regulations, as set out in its UK-SPEC and Accreditation of Higher Education Programmes.
If you work in Higher Education and want a Europe-wide badge of recognition for your accredited degree programmes, check our EUR-ACE information.
