HEFCE is inviting applications for new funding to support the development of conversion courses in engineering (England only). This pilot scheme aims to help the higher education sector develop more courses that support non-engineering graduates in pursuing a career in engineering. The scheme aims to support innovative approaches which increase the number of graduates pursuing engineering at postgraduate level and entering the profession. In addition, separate funding under the same scheme is available to develop conversion courses in engineering-related computer science disciplines. The deadline for applications is 27th November and full details of how to apply, FAQs etc may be found at this link. The EPC (together with the Engineering Council) has worked closely with HEFCE in developing this call and we encourage EPC members to participate.
