Engineering is one of the broadest and most important of all university subjects, encompassing civil, mechanical, electrical, chemical, and structural specialisms alongside newer fields such as biomedical, software, and systems engineering. What all branches of engineering share is a commitment to applying scientific and mathematical principles to solve real problems and create things that work reliably and safely in the world. At the University of Edinburgh, first-year students enter an open engineering programme that allows them to experience the discipline broadly before committing to a specialism. This four-year full-time programme at Edinburgh begins with a common first year in engineering, giving you the opportunity to explore the breadth of the field before your interests and strengths guide you towards a particular specialism in subsequent years.
