The Engineering Council (EC-UK) and the Royal Commission for the

of employer support for employees working towards CEng status by way
of a work-based MSc professional ngineering with a research
element.The study explored the level of support amongst organisations
that employ BEng graduates, taken from a sample of UKbased companies
across a range of engineering sectors. The key findings include:80% of
the ompanies believe that the work-based Masters with a research
component would encourage BEng qualified engineers to become Eng
registered.

39% of the companies agreed that they would support their employees on
the work-based Masters with a research
element.
88% of the companies encourage BEng and MEng qualified engineers to
become • CEng registered.
96% engage with Universities in some way by either short courses
(teaching) or research.

universities to work with interested industry partners to develop
proposals for this type of MSc, and a briefing for interested
companies has been held.
