This degree programme is designed to give graduates technical, managerial and entrepreneurial skills and knowledge. The programme helps equip students to develop innovative engineering products and solutions and turn them to financial advantage. The programme is designed for graduates with a first degree in a relevant numerate subject. The programme combines excellent engineering education in areas that are key to developing new technologies (namely, advanced materials, renewable energy and biomedical engineering), with modules in project management and entrepreneurship. These are combined to equip students with the fundamentals and skills required to manage innovation. Students undertake a group and an individual project with a focus on innovation.

Graduates will be well placed to understand new technologies, develop and use their creativity to identify needs and opportunities and generate innovative solutions. This prepares them for successful careers in today's competitive, technology and knowledge-based economy.

This programme is delivered by leading researchers from across UCL. Students have varied opportunities to network and stay informed about transforming ideas to business. For example, students will participate in the Entrepreneurship Lecture Series and are encouraged to attend an Enterprise Bootcamp workshop. They may also enter entrepreneurship competitions to pursue their innovative business ideas. Students also build up employer networks through the department’s careers programme which includes employer-led events and individual coaching. This carefully designed programme will equip our graduates with the skills and confidence needed to play a creative and leading role in the professional and research community.

The Engineering with Innovation and Entrepreneurship MSc has been accredited by the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) as meeting the further learning requirements, in full, for registration as a Chartered Engineer for a period of five years, from the 2017 student cohort intake.
