Set yourself up for a rewarding career in engineering for international development on this comprehensive, one-year MSc at UCL. Delving into everything from infrastructure development, environmental sustainability, and social impact, you’ll build the specialised expertise needed to have an impact in this critical field and combat poverty in low to middle-income nations.
If you’re passionate about using the power of engineering to help solve challenges on an international scale, this is the MSc for you.
The comprehensive curriculum of our Engineering for International Development MSc covers urban resilience, wastewater solutions, human settlements and renewable energy. You'll also study the delivery processes within resource-limited contexts and ethical quandaries inherent in international engineering work.
You’ll also learn all about the decisions engineers need to make from a social, technical, and environmental standpoint. A global perspective will help you understand the context of your work as an engineer, so you can go out and create engineering projects that solve some of the world’s most pressing resource, climate, and sustainability challenges.
A minimum of an upper second-class Bachelor’s degree in a relevant discipline (such as engineering, architecture, geography, urban planning, mathematics) from a UK university or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. Normally, however, only candidates with either a first- or upper second-class degree will be accepted, although applicants with a lower second-class degree supported by extensive relevant work experience will also be considered.
