The Engineering Doctorate (EngD) is a qualification for practising researchers who aim to lead and innovate the development of products, processes and services in industry. You will follow a fully integrated programme of taught technical, business, management and entrepreneurship modules, and will conduct an industry-based research project.
The EngD is an alternative to the traditional PhD, designed for those who want a career in the engineering industry. The programme combines PhD-level research projects with taught modules, where you will spend approximately 75% of your time working directly with a company.
The course has a strong focus on problem-based learning and is designed to develop practical, team working, leadership and transferable skills, alongside technical expertise.
The basic qualification for entry to a programme is: a first or an upper second (2:1) first degree (or equivalent) from a UK academic institution, in a relevant discipline. Industry experience is desirable and valuable or an MEng/MSc in a relevant discipline. In addition, if you have a recognised Master’s degree (MSc or MEng) relevant to the proposed area of research, accompanied with a developed detailed research plan, you may be considered for direct entry to the EngD Project phase.
