If you're planning to stay with your current employer after graduating, you could use this top up course to secure a more senior role. But you could also apply your skills to any number of roles in industries that require engineers.
All engineering roles are listed in the UK Government’s 'skills shortage list' – which means engineers are currently in high demand. And the 2019 IET Skills and Demand in Industry report found that a third of employers increased their engineering and technology workforce in the previous 3 years.
You could also choose to set up your own business, or take a voluntary placement.
