Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This course combines a foundation year with a full Integrated Master's degree, emphasising learning by doing and work-ready skills from the start. You'll typically progress from engineering fundamentals, mathematics, mechanics, materials and practical design, through to specialist options and a final project. Early years cover core topics such as thermodynamics, circuits, simulation and engineering analysis, alongside a team design project. In later years, you'll choose specialisations such as mechanical, electrical & electronic, civil & structural, robotics & mechatronics, energy & sustainability, or the Chartered (CEng) pathway. You'll culminate in a substantial individual project and study professional engineering practice, covering safety, ethics and sustainability.
Who it's for
You're drawn to engineering and want hands-on, practical learning rather than purely theoretical study. A foundation year appeals to you, perhaps your qualifications fall outside traditional entry patterns, or you'd value a structured introduction before specialising. You're capable and curious, comfortable with building knowledge progressively. You thrive when theory connects directly to real problems and projects. The prospect of learning by doing, gaining skills employers value, and completing an independent project excites rather than daunts you. You're goal-oriented: whether you see this as a stepping stone to engineering practice or further postgraduate work, you want a degree that prepares you concretely for what comes next.
Careers & job market
Across engineering courses nationally, 90% of graduates are in work or further study within 15 months of graduating. Of those working, 80% are in highly skilled roles or pursuing further qualifications.

International students
What applying to NMITE from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is £34,128 / year for this course (from the provider’s fee page). You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check NMITE’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with NMITE and gov.uk before you apply.
