The prestigious DESG Graduate Scheme has been held in high regard throughout industry for almost thirty years. The Scheme is accredited by the Institute of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), Institute of Electrical Engineers (IEE) and the Royal institute of Naval Architects (RINA) and offers an accelerated route to professional registration as a Chartered Engineer.

The DESG Schemes include opportunities for students and graduates:

  • The DESG Graduate Scheme – This scheme is open to final year students. The graduate scheme consists of up to two years of structured training, leading to the first professional post.

A bursary is paid annually and the students are required to undertake paid placements during the summer vacation relevant to their professional development. Sponsorship can be obtained during the first year at university or mid-course.
  • The Defence Technical Undergraduate Scheme (DTUS) – This Scheme offers sponsorship to a limited number of students commencing or part way through an approved science or engineering degree at Aston, Loughborough, Newcastle, Northumbria or Southampton universities. DTUS is similar to the student sponsorship scheme, but is designed to develop leadership and team working skills alongside the British Armed Forces and a deeper understanding of the military environment.
