Accrediting organisations

This course is currently in the process of being re-accredited by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Royal Aeronautical Society under license from the UK regulator, the Engineering Council for the 2025 to 2030 intakes. The process of renewing accreditation takes place regularly, at intervals of no greater than 5 years, to assure continued compliance with the academic requirements of professional accreditation. This course has been consistently accredited by the Royal Aeronautical Society since 2005 and the Institution of Mechanical Engineers since 2009, and the outcome of the current re-accreditation process for September 2025 entry is due to be confirmed in June after which we will be able to update you further.

Students completing an IMechE/RAeS accredited degree are deemed to have met part or all of the academic requirements for registration as a Chartered or Incorporated Engineer and are in a strong position to move on to achieve professional engineering status after a period of initial professional development in industry.

The accredited BEng (Hons) meets the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements, in part, for Chartered Engineer registration or in full, for registration as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng). The accredited MEng fully meets the exemplifying academic benchmark requirements, for registration as a Chartered Engineer (CEng).
