Professional Engineering MSc

I have recently had my IEng PRI and while I wait for the Eng Council decision, I have been looking for a distance learning masters. I have seen that a number of universities are offering Professional Engineering MSc that provide a pre-agreed path to CEng. Does anyone know anything about this?

Thanks in Advance

  • Hi Ian,


    As i understand it, IET accredited courses are exactly that - they are accredited by the IET. I don't know what happens these days, but several years ago i was involved in supporting my local university through its IET reaccreditation process and it was pretty thorough. So yes, I would not be surprised if there are EC accredited courses which are not IET accredited.


    This should not greatly affect any CEng registration however, it is NOT essential that you attend an accredited course (or, indeed, any course) - you just need to show that you have met an equivalent standard. I would hope that stating that teh course is EC accredited would achieve this.


    Cheers,


    Andy
