The School of Engineering is one of the largest of its type in the UK. There are approximately 300 academic, teaching and research staff, and 1,600 postgraduates following taught programmes or undertaking research. The School is made up of three Divisions: Civil and Mechanical Engineering; Electrical and Electronic Engineering; Manufacturing (Warwick Manufacturing Group).

Warwick is one of the few universities which has a unified department covering, and wherever possible integrating, most branches of Engineering. It is large, thriving, well-equipped and active in many fields of teaching and research, and has, in addition, won numerous training awards. As well as the renowned International Manufacturing Centre housing state-of-the-art laser equipment and machining facilities, there are a number of specialist units such as Computational Fluid Dynamics and the Development Technology Unit. The School has extensive links with industry, illustrated by the International Automotive Research Centre.

For all degrees within the School, the School's links with industry help to provide vacation training placements for students. Students are encouraged to undertake a period of industrial training in the Second (BEng and MEng) and Third Year (MEng) long vacations and are given some assistance in finding suitable employment. In addition the School is happy to defer entry for students who wish to gain pre-university experience. Although the School does not advertise sandwich courses we are pleased to permit students to interrupt their studies for a full year to obtain suitable work experience if they so wish.

By adopting a unified approach to engineering, and emphasising the interdisciplinary aspects, Warwick is able to maintain flexibility in its degree structures. It offers several degree programmes, accredited by the appropriate Engineering Institutions. In addition, they are recognised by the European Federation of National Engineering Associations (FEANI) as meeting the higher educational requirements for registration on the European Engineer Register.

The programmes have maximum flexibility for those students wishing to develop their communication, creative and analytical skills. Our Admissions Tutors are always willing to help by discussing choices between our degree programmes. The Engineering degree programme offers plenty of time in which to decide which specialism (if any) matches your aspirations.
