Do I need a masters degree to become a Chartered Structural Engineer?
Ғылым және технология
Have you been advised that you need a four year masters degree to become a qualified structural engineer or civil engineer? In this video I answer this question and give you my opinion on the BEST two routes to chartered engineer status.
On this channel I teach you how to become a successful structural engineer, covering your route to professional accreditation, how to practice as a consulting engineer, structural design and the IStructE chartered exam.
Whatever you current situation THERE IS A ROUTE FOR YOU TO BECOME QUALIFIED, and on this channel I cover the things you need to get there.

Hi Robin I've fallen in love with your content its brilliant. When you say about the HNC then technical report route does that mean its like through competency and work experience instead?
hello robin does this mean doing MENG for sole purpose of chartership is waste of time and money is you can go through report route?

Hi Dmitry. I pretty much tried them all! The whole journey is too complicated to put in a nutshell -- maybe I'll do a video one day.

@@user-ge4mz3rl8h Hi Dmitrij. Start recording your experience and relate it back to the ICE member attributes. This will guide where you need additional experience. Then you need around 7-10 years experience to go for the technical report route. www.ice.org.uk/my-ice/membership-documents/member-attributes
thank you for your help and explanation >>> I have a MSc in structural design 2010 ,London and I did not work since that time >> do I need any course start my own business as a structural engineer ? I want to work as a private office

What you really need is work experience in a structural engineering consultancy before going self employed.

Hi. What country are you in? I would probably suggest a 1 year masters in structural engineering.
Hi, just a question is there a big difference or any difference at all between doing a 4 year MEng degree, or instead doing a BEng and then a 1-year MSc at a different University, if so which is better? Thanks.

A 4 year MEng will most likely be accredited by the ICE and IStructE for chartered membership. Doing a 1 year MSc might not be quite as technical, so I would suggest you check first if it is accredited.

do you think a firm will be reluctant to put me on the grad scheme if i don’t have a masters? (BEng, have had summer internships with firm)

With a BEng in a relevant discipline you would have a good chance, I would think.

Hi Daroga. I suggest contacting the Institution of Civil Engineers to see if your degree is recognised by them, as a first step. Usually they require a four years masters degree (MEng).

Hi Sudeepta. His academic qualification would be insufficient, but the17 years experience should be able to make up for that shortfall. He would need to take the technical report route. Also he would need to have several chartered members who could propose him for membership. Hope that helps, and all the best!

If you get accepted on a UK masters degree, first make sure that is on this list of approved courses: jbm.org.uk/accreditation/accredited-programmes Once you've graduated, you should be able to apply for membership at the ICE or IStructE, and they will undertake an academic assessment of your Egyptian degree as part of your application process.
How do you apply for one? Would a MEng in Mechanical allow me to do this? Is there any benefits of chartered status for F1 for example? Thanks

WIth an MEng in Mechanical engineering you should be fine with the ICE, although the IStructE may ask you to undertake some Geotechnical study or write a report.
is 4 year bachlors degree in Structural engineering from Indian university accredited to register as Chartered Structural Engineer? Is it essential to write an exam or there is other route also ?

Hi. You would probably need to supply details of your course for assessment, and the IStructE would let you know if it is equivalent. You would need to do the exam to get CEng MIstructE.
