How can I get fully accredited?

Question

Here's my background - I'm a medical student in the UK currently intercalating (taking an extra year out to do a second degree), doing a Master's degree that is partially accredited by the IET. I understand that getting a CEng would require an eligible undergrad degree, but I didn't do an BEng, and I believe medicine is not counted as an eligible UG degree. Are there courses that one has to do as a top-up to get full accreditation? Or can I get a CEng on the basis of my Master's and research that I have been publishing related to robotics in surgery? Basically, what do I need to do to become eligible for a CEng?

to register you need to demonstrate the correct level of technical underpunning knowledge (uk&u) plus competencies and commitments. While academic qualifications can help demonstrate technical knowledge it is not a must have. you can use work based learning and other experience to demonstrate uk&u. I suggest you talk to a PRA who can advise.

Have a read of the latest edition of UK-SPEC. You will find out that you need more than degrees and training certificates. It normally requires a few years experience after graduating.
