The complexity and sophistication of modern engineering requires a multidisciplinary approach. Industry is therefore seeking engineers with broad knowledge and skilled in more than one of the traditional engineering disciplines. 

The Integrated Engineering degree embraces many aspects of electrical, electronic, mechanical and manufacturing engineering. By completing this course you will qualify as an engineer of the highest quality: your broad knowledge of various aspects of engineering will ensure you can interact with engineers from all the traditional engineering disciplines in any multidisciplinary environment.

You will also become familiar with the role of engineering within the business environment, as particular attention is paid to economics, management and law.

Note that if Chartered status is important to you, a four-year Cardiff MEng course may offer a quicker, more direct route than this BEng course.

Other Cardiff University Integrated Engineering courses available may include:

• the opportunity to follow a sandwich year in industry if you choose the relevant four-year BEng or five-year MEng degree option
• the opportunity to study abroad at a partner institution for one semester if you choose the relevant MEng (International) degree option
• the opportunity to study a language if you choose the relevant MEng degree option with a sandwich year at a university in France, Germany or Spain
