    Course Summary

    The University of Portsmouth’s Innovation Engineering degree is a 4 year integrated Master’s which can also be taken as a 5 year ‘thick sandwich’ MEng with a year in working placement. It is designed to give tomorrow’s innovators, entrepreneurs and world-changers the engineering understanding and practical business skills they need to make their projects and enterprises succeed.

    Over the next 4 to 5 years you’ll explore the possibilities of Portsmouth’s brand new Future Technology Centre, undertake projects that solve problems in the real world. You’ll collaborate with experts in everything from nanotechnology to green energy.

    You’ll learn a great deal about innovation and invention. This includes design, materials science, and the finer points of both mechanical and electrical engineering. You’ll also gain a deeper understanding of how to identify and address societal and economic problems through engineering as well as how to market your solutions to the people and organisations which need them the most.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.

    Successful completion will result in a 4 year MEng or a 5 year MEng with work experience.

    Applicants must typically have achieved 3 A Levels, with at least 128 first year HE credits, 40 of which must come from Mathematics. Other qualifications may be accepted, however.  

    All classes are taught in English, and international students will be required to achieve an IELTS score of 6.0 overall with no section scoring less than 5.5. Other tests can also be accepted, at similar levels of achievement.
