What do you think about the degree awarded by the Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology? Is it fully recognized by the Engineering Council?

Hands-on apprenticeship at Dyson with academics of the University of Warwick. I think this is a highly successful combination.


The Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology gives students hands-on experience as part of their Global Engineering team while studying for their degree from Warwick Manufacturing Group, University of Warwick. Students earn a competitive salary – starting on a salary of £18,000 per annum, which increases each year. Students are also eligible for the staff bonus scheme and staff discount. and because Dyson covers all tuition fees, they could graduate debt-free.​ 

The students have to pay for their accommodations. Basically one is classed as a full-time employee at Dyson and a full-time student. 


A friend of mine graduated in the USA from a somewhat similar program at the San Jose State University and IBM. The difference was job title initially was an intern Engineer and upon graduation staff Engineer.

This type of apprenticeship working with engineers on real projects and the academics of a University produced well-rounded job-ready experienced engineers.


The Dyson Institute is trying to get degree-awarding approvals and if approved is planning to offer its own awarded degree after September 2021.

If not approved the degree will continue to be awarded by Warwick.
The majority of Warwick engineering degrees are accredited by licensed professional engineering institutions, such as the IET, IMechE, and JBM and provide the academic component (in part or fully) needed for Incorporated/Chartered Engineer status.  I assume this degree is accredited for the registration as an engineer.
