Pathways to study

If you don't initially meet the entry requirements for degree study there is always another route and you may want to consider an HNC or access course.

Liam, electrical and electronic engineering graduate

Without UHI I wouldn't have been able to gain my apprenticeship. It all started when I completed a college link engineering course here, while still at school. That led on to a national certificate and then all the way through to me graduating with a degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. I have so much to thank UHI for.

Liam graduated from our BEng (Hons) Electrical and Electronic Engineering at UHI North, West and Hebrides.
